Well that answers my question from the other thread! That's awesome!

Good luck with the cycling! Also the current canister filter you have, do you know how many litres per hour it's rated for?
I ask because filtration is advised to be 10x the tank size, so you overall you would need about 2000 litres per hour  Smiley

that'll be fine

make sure you take the time to cycle the tank (may take up to 6 weeks)

then add your fish gradually, or else the sudden increase on the bio-load will start a new cycle
