Well, some people don't run their fish rooms with some 100+ gallon tanks using only sponge filters for no reason. A pair of Midas honestly shouldn't be that much of a bioload in a 180 really anyways.
Sponge vs box filters

I would worry about mech filtration in all honesty, itd be real tough to keep any waste in check but I'm sure people manage.
He could always hook up a cheap powerhead power head or two to a couple of the sponges for a bit of extra turn over/water movement.
Now it's time to play our favorite gameshow - "I CAN'T BELIEVE HE JUST SAID THAT!!!"
Dude, Midases get BIG and produce a lot of waste....
Maybe I should have been a bit clearer lol. Not used to being up this early. I'm a bit of a more 'liberal' with stocking aquariums and a 180 to me is more than enough for just two Midas.
Won't derail the thread tho so I'll leave it at that.

i agree, but good filtration would have to BEGIN w/ just the Midases before anything else would flourish and have a healthy tank. Then again, a pair of Midases would likely kill almost anything you put with them.....

Don't make it weird or anything.
This is why OP made the thread - to get opinions and why.
You participating or not?
I am. I just said that I wasn't going to really go into detail about how I personally stock the way I do and why. I already gave my opinion on the OP's question and what I thought they should do.
