Hello, been out of the hobby for a few years now. We added on to our house so space for an aquarium finally! Lids do not fit properly, but close enough.

6' 125 gallon Aqueon tempered bottom
Aqqa 32" 30W full spectrum lighting x2 (Amazon)
DIY 1.5" overflow to sump
HTH Pool filter sand (150lbs)
Aqqa 1200GPH return pump
Bio balls/ceramic media/carbon in 20 gallon sump
Random rocks and sticks from my area
drilled 1/8" hole to return for siphon break

Planned residents are:
12 silver dollars
2 pleco medium 6-8" max
1 White Saum GT
1 Salvini
MAYBE 1 Jack Dempsey

I fear aggression issues between the GT and JD will become an issue, thoughts?
