Will my filtration be enough?

[batang_mcdo]

Hi,

Currently i have a 8x2x2.5 ft tank.
I'm planning to use a 4x1.5ft x 1.5 ft sump tank, also a 4 ft overhead filter box and an eheim Canister 2250. Will this be anough filtration for my tank?
the tank will house 7 asian arowanas and 9 red hooks.
water change will be weekly.

thanks.

I dont see why it wouldnt

thanks a little worried since my tank's bio load would be high
i currently have a 55 gallon drum filter with no media, but planning to remove that one, also a opverhead 15 gallon sump. but also worried about wight , so was wondering if a 75 gallon sump with eheim can handle the bio load

Should be fine considering you mentioning that water changes would be weekly!

I moved this to the filtration section. Sounds pretty well stocked, have to keep on top of water changes.

Batteries ran down it the crystal ball again...

Don't exactly know how anyone can answer this without knowing what media your going to be using, the flow (turnover) rate and if it is just a sump or a Wet/Dry filter with a sump.

Size wise, with the other filters you should be ok with a 6x turnover if the unit is a W/D with a pre-filter and packed with bio-material (scrubbies). Add aeration under the bio-media for added oxygenation of the bio-media making it more efficient.

will also be adding som eplants , maybe hornwort or pandan to the sump.
