i would like another canister but nothing that cost over $350 if possable

Aquaclear 110 is a good choice if mony is an issue. However that is a heavy stock list for a tank that size.

yea, my first thought is when will your rose queen kill something and 2nd is whose going to miss a chunk of flesh first from your wolf fish (of which as lock jaw) lol. But for filters, dr.fostersmith.com had the Fx5 on sale for 229.99 I was picking one up.

i just put an AquaTop cf500uv 525 GPH canister filter on my tank. its a good filter for the money i like mine i paid $90

id rather have 2 ac110s and the xp4. thats exactly what i have on my 150.

No the rose queen and the butti gets chased by the greenterror and the jag destroys the green terror when he gets the chance the fx5 isgenerally what I was thinking about because I will be running two filters atonce not just one or the other I did it for my 55 and it worked perfectly.
