Well I'm looking to see what kind of filter you guy/gals suggest for a 55g tank?

If you have a 55g what filter or filters do you use?

Also what other equipment are you using? (Ex. powerhead)

Thanks for any replies.

I have a penguin 350 hob and an aquatop CF400 with uv canister filters on my 55.

I'm keeping freshwater fish. I'm a fan of canisters too. I've never tried Marineland canisters. I have a rena filstar xp3 and have had no problems with that for years.

I'm thinking about trying out the Aquatop CF400 for the price it seems pretty good or the SunSun HW-304B.
The Aquatop service reps are excellent and the price can't be beat. I have had mine for 10 months and no problems.

I run an AC70 and a api nexx canister. I love the aquaclear, but I feel like the nexx is a bit of a rip off. The pump seems kind of weak to me, and you don't save any money by having to buy the api media for it.
