I have a 60 gallon aquarium with 5 juvinile discus and 5 cardinal tetras.My tank is lightly planted.I need a filter that will take care of all the junk in my tank.I read on other forumes that people use two filters is this good or bad in a planted tank.

I have two on my 55 and would not go back to just one filter ever.

2 2217 classics would be perfect

or if you like baskets which many do, 2 x 2026 would be great.

I would think you need the cleanest water possible for those discus plus alternate cleaning is great for a healthy tank.

I run a Eheim ecco 2236 and a Eheim proII 2026 on the 55 and love em both, super quiet.
