Emperor 400 and Fluval 304 too much for 90G?

Upgrading from a 46 to 90 and plan on using my canister filter with 2 koralia evo 1400s. Should i use the emperor 400 for extra flow or will it be too much or not necessary? I can return it since its brand new in box too.....thanks all!

I don't think it would be too much. You could put LR rubble in the Fluval and the media baskets in the Emperor are useful for running other media like GFO pellets or Purigen.

I would return the HOB filter and get a reactor, they are a lot more efficient, and if you have a sump you can hide it.
