Need help stocking a 29

Thanks AP, I guess there always is advantages to overfiltering but I didn't know if it was really needed.

Anybody have any additional comments on my stocking? I would like a pair of smaller julies and either occies or brevis, I need help deciding...

I looked at the aqua clear (if that's what you meant by AC) and it seems reasonable. What do you mean jm?

edit: nevermind. the AC 300 works then and is only $41 at Petsmart. Is this good?

Also, stocking fine???

you want the filtration combined to be rated as pumping 10 times the gallon volume of the tank per hour. if the flow is a bit strong you would diffuse with a spray bar arrangement.

i suggest having at least 2 filters as a matter of course, in case of failure.
 
Alright. I picked up a filter. AC 50/200 and I ordered some holey rock and shells from ebay (cheap too!). I was wondering if anybody had some last minute suggestions? Stocking and substrate are the two things that are on my mind right now.
 
I am new to african cichlids (I have GBR's in a 30)

Just wondering, you know GBR's are south american cichlids, not african, right?

Sorry if im off topic, but i was just reading through the thread & noticed that when i went back to the beggining.
