The tank is 60x18x16, about 75 gallons. I thought about 2 AC 110's, is that too much? I'm not a fan of

canisters, at least with 2 AC's I can put one on either end of the tank. Are powerheads ok or not?

This should clear it up. Rays don't need lots of water movement....but

In my 200 down stairs I have 2 fx5s, a Eheim 2250, a seio 1500, and a seio 820.

They are from the river....so I give them current.

Yeah but isn't it the slow part of the river?

Anyways my tank was built for converting to salt one day in mind, so there's lots of current in there. Sometimes they play in it which is cool to watch. I suppose it's whatever you prefer.

I am not sure what the river is like. They seem to love my tank though!
