More filtration for my 125g

[5Spot Junkie]

Was looking at getting another filter for my 125g. Currently running 1 fx5. Tank is still cycling. Probably going to keep some affrican riverine cichlids in it.
Any thoughts would be nice!

Thanks

one fx5 should be good enough for a 125. lol unless you want to overkill it and add another fx5

are you wanting to add another canister or a HOB ?

Was just thinking about a canister. Would that be overkill???

i think HarleyK has a 125 with dual Eheim 2262... which is almost like the FX5.

I just set up my 125 with a FX 5 and a sump. Still cycling. But i'm thinking add a eheim 2128 with Coralife Turbo Twist 6X - 18 Watt U.V. Sterilizer.

(1) FX5 should be plenty.

I have two Emperor 400s on my 125 and three on my 150. Both are pretty heavily stocked and my water stays really clear.

i have 1 2262 on my 210 atm and plan to add a second 2262 and a AC110 later this year so im a fan of filtration lol.
