Wondering whether two emperor 400 bio wheel filters would be enough for this size tank. I have one 400 on my 55 gallon and love the way the filter operates. I am upgrading to a 150 gallon tank and would love to just add another filter to the one i already have. Any suggestions would be appreciated as far as filtering this size tank.
 
i dont think 2 emperor 400's would be enough.

I would recommend an eheim 2217 along with an emperor 400.
 
Add eheim or XP...but definitely more...preferably canister, if not two.
 
i use an eheim 2026 and a whisper 60 (modded with a biowheel instead of buying a whole new filter :D) for my 75 and that is my absolute minimum for the 75, i recommend a large canister (eheim 2028 or bigger) and a very large HOB. if not more.
