SO Here is a update, I know its has been a while. I just got the parts for the eheim 2260 in today I just have to go pick them up. But today I decided to do some changes to the tank. The Back ground I had on there from pet smart kept getting water in between it and the glass and I couldn't keep it out. It started to look nasty and mold and it was getting on my nerves really bad. SO, I went and got a big piece of vinyl, (basically a big sticker) from the local decal shop here. It only cost me 15 bucks for a 96x30 inch piece witch is cheaper than what I spent on the original background at pet smart. It was kinda challenging to put on but I this this is a way better alternative than painting the back of the tank. And WAY less permanent!!! Here are some pics

updated pics of the 240 with new filtration

cleaned the tank and added a some more fish but I cant get good pics of them because my camera sucks!! I think i have around 16 or 17 fish in the tank now and a few others are still in a grow out tank. I just hooked up the ehiem 2260 that I bought a month or so ago, So I have that and 2 xp3 running on the tank. The fist pic is of the tank with the flash on. The water is really not that color the flash makes it look brown.
