Sounds good grmanrocks .....You already know much about filtration, but consider adding a canister for biological filtration....I do the two AC110 setup on my 100 from time to time, so it's fine....They are actually great mechanical filters, so good to go...Or try something new like a DIY wet/dry....They're really easy and inexpensive....I prefer the "3-drawer in a sump" method myself, total costs for drawer and plastic bin is about $50 at Office Depot.....Just fill up the bottom two drawers with balls and put filter floss in the top drawer....Drill a single hole on the top of the drawer and insert your intake tube....PLace the drawer inside your new plastic bin and your almost done....Just choose a pump and connect an outake tube to it, and your finished....My 180's sump is going to use this:http://www.bigalsonline.com/BigAlsUS/ctl3684/cp18559/si1379421/cl0/riohyperflow20hfpump....

As is it will work just fine. Doesn't sound too populated now, but if you are like me or most of us anybody you will be adding new fish. Just keep back-up in mind and get it (cycled,populated, stabilized; you know), for when you increase the number of residents in your tank.

i will probably end up addin a canister eventually, but the only thing i might add would be more bichirs. i just want to get it off the ground..... the acs will turn the tank over 10 times an hour.......just wiant to get some fish in it..........
