Yes, I would say that this is a great use of the forum. I've forwarded your questions to the seller. I've posted the reply below and would very much appreciate any comments as we will make an offer soon.
Here's the reply:

>As far as the fish. We keep the tank at 82 degrees for the sack of the plecos and the discus. All the fish have been in there together pretty much from the beginning most at least a year or more. The goldfish was a feeder fish for our saltwater lion fish. But when we got rid of the lionfish the goldfish was left in our tank and it grew really big. It was not a fish I originally wanted in there but there is only one and it is very happy. It has been in the tank about 8 months now. The Discus live just fine. The driftwood has actually been out of the tank for about 5 months now so there is really nothing in the tank it is as you see in the picture. My husband was tired of the fish hiding so he took out the driftwood. But all of the fish have been fine. The 2 discus school together for the most part but they are healthy and happy. The plecos are all very healthy. They all hide in their own spots mostly close to the gravel at the bottom.
The filters are tetratec PF500 which is for a 100 gallon not 125 gallon. Sorry my mistake. I will change that on the listing. These filters have a heater you can buy that go inside the filter instead of having to have a separate heater. We really like them and have had no problems with them to date. Ours does have a pipe that goes off the bottom of the filter whish is were the water is sucked into the filter. Each filter has their own biological sponge chamber which creates the biological filtration system. We purchased these filters from Petsmart when they first came out for around $120 each and the heaters were around $40.00 each. We have really liked them and they seem to do a good job.
