hi i need some advices/ opinions from you all here..
currently for the filters i have 4 units of fluval fx6
2 out of 4 fx6 are currently running on my 50 gal tank to get the BB ready. it has been running about 6 weeks there. the other 2 are still virgin lol.. i use seachem prime, stability and pristine to keep the water under control.
my questions:
for exhibit #1, do i need 1 or 2 or 3 filters?
for exhibit #2, do i need 2 or 3 filters?
your opinions or advices would help me alot to determine wether purchasing 1 or 2 more fx6 will be necessary or not. soo thank you so much..

tank exhibit #2
location : living room
i am going to order it soon.. it will take the shop about 14 days to get the tank and stand ready after i put the down payment.
dimensions:
8ft L x 2-1/2ft W x 2ft H
(240cm x 75cm x 60cm)
volume : 285 gal
Fish stock : 7 fishes
- 1 RTG Arowana 6in (15cm)

- 1 lemon oscar 7in (17.5cm)
- 1 tiger oscar 6 in (15cm)
all the fishes except the RTG are currently in 50 gal, and thankfully they all get along even the Flowerhorns. The RTG will be arrived in 4 days and it will be kept in my exhibit # 1 with glass divider with my super red untill the tank for the exhibit #2 is ready..
i believe by raising them all from small and about the same size should greatly reduce their aggressions *fingers crossed*.. worse come to worst i will move whoever the culprit to the 50 gal lol..
here is the pic of my current 50 gal..
