I'm wondering what are my best options for filtering a 125g generously stocked tank [no angles or discuss]. With rams, tetras, plecos and loaches.

Any suggestions?

I'd go with 2 canisters, personally- some combo of Rena XP3s and/or Eheim 2217s.

I pick up a Blue Line 55HD 1100gph pump on ebay and having a Mazzie set-up
and 2 returns lines with modular hoses.

My intake will be 1 inch and my line system will also be 1 inch.

A friend of mine has a 125 that is filtered by a Rena xp4 (it says 3 but its a 4) and has 2 power heads for supplemental water moment and co2 distribution.

Here is his link.

If your tank will have less plants then there are allot of other more simpler options out there though.

I run 2 - Eheim 2028 for filtration.
For the plant side of things:
Mag 9.5 for CO2
Mag 9.5 for UV
2 Hydor Koralia Nano
