Hello all...

My first post here so bear with me. =c) Have a few questions...

I have a 46 gallon overstocked discus tank running a basic eheim 2213 which is getting a big upgrade to a 120 gallon running xp3 and xp4 in the next few weeks. My questions are basically are those two filters ok to handle 9 discus and probably around 30 cardinal tetras...Do I need a circ pump for this tank? I hear bad things about the xp4 so I was thinking of maybe eliminating that one and getting another eheim. Maybe the 2217...Can I run the xp3 and 2217 together?

Thanks....more questions to follow.

thats plenty of filtration. I run an Ehiem 2078 and an xp3 in my 120 with 8 adult wilds, 4 festivums, and 25 lemon tetras.
