All the tanks had sponge filters in them powered by a Jehmco linear piston air pump. All the larger tanks (20 gallons or larger) also had Aquaclear power filters on them. I highly recommend the air pump as it has plenty of power and is uses very little energy.

This fish room contained 25+ cichlid tanks. There were 5 aquariums built into a wall in my basement. Those aquariums were two 125 gallon and three 75 gallons aquariums.
