Am planning on purchasing a 120 for my two red snooks, was wondering if two canister filters, say 300 GPH would be sufficient with the heads in the corners to keep the water moving. In adittion to the two snooks there would also be a pleco that is about 10in. I figure that there would be plenty of room for all of them once the snooks are full grown with room for the pleco to grow as well. Any advice on setup or any constructive criticism is welcome. Thanks alot all

Personally I would go for a 180g It gives you an extra 2 feet length. It is not uncommon for Red Snooks to get 18 inches end to end is 36 inches and a 120 is only 48 inches. The 12og may be fine but that extra 2 feet will do wonders for their personalities when full grown.
