Well, I found my 2 fluval 405s pretty cheap online. I don't know what your budget would be. I think it was a little over 100$ shipped for one.

Im running 2 fluval 405 on mine. As for a secondary canister, I personally wouldn't go to high flow being youll have the Fx5 running unobstructed. Maybe something rated for a 90g would do.

After some searching on site, I decided to go with STS for my substrate. It looks just as good as fluorite to me, which Ive used quite a bit in the past.
