Projected 45 Gal Tall Setup

[robertjhall1]

Hello tropical fish forum, I am Robert. I have had several aquariums, a 10 gal, a 29 gal, and now just a 10 gal. I will be upgrading here in the not to distant future, and was just wanting to run my equipment selections by some fellow hobbyists.

Here is what I have chosen; A 36x12x24 glass aquarium, two Fluval C2 power filters, Marineland single bright 36-48 led lights, and a ViaAqua Titanium 250 watt submersible heater.

The aquarium will most likely house some green tiger barbs, some blue gouramis, a mollie or two, oto cats or cory cats, and if I decide to chance it a red tailed shark. I am going to steer clear of plants, but maybe someday.

Not sure on the numbers of which yet, that remains to be seen, but this is what I am looking at.

So whats the consensus, equipment wise? Im even willing to take advice on the stock as well.

Thanks.

The only piece of equipment you have listed that I have experience with is the heater. I found it to be very reliable and accurate as to where I had it dialed in to.
