I recently bought a used 55 gallon from someone that I want to use as a grow out tank for mbuna African cichlids. The tank was previously a salt water aquarium.

I live near Orlando and I am planning a 240 gallon African cichlid tank. It is a big undertaking as I have never owned anything larger than a 55 gallon. I talked to a LFS called Daytona Aqurium that specializes in African cichlids and the manager recommended a sump but also that it turn the tank...
