Sandeep..
Cool.. Cichlids should be fine.. but most of them get pretty aggressive.. and some get pretty big over a period of time.. forget gars and RTCs.. even one will not have adequate room as they get larger.. Do you have any fish at the moment? Can you post a full shot of the area please? How much time will you be able to dedicate to cleaning the tank and filters? |

You Can Install a Pressurised Pond filter with a Submersible Pump.
I use a Chinese Make SUN Sun brand Presurised Pond filter with Capacity of 3500LPH.
Equipped with 11w UV Light.
I have 2 8" Kois, and 6 Goldfishes in my Pond.
I will post pics after completing the whole setup. |

| You need to add a LOT more media to the sump. Fill the first compartment with plastic dishwashing scrubbers, the net type. Porous sponge in the second and bio media like ceramic rings in the 3rd |

| You have done pond basically, for filter what you did is correct. But this filter is good for Fish tanks only. I would like to suggest you to keep Drum DIY filter which is simple and effective one. Keep Big Matts in the drum instead of those small ones which u added. |
