10 gal filtration?

[barbuto]

I am currently looking for filtration for a 10gal betta/shrimp/snail/planted tank.

I have an AC 20 right now, think that will suffice?

I was looking into getting either a Zoomed 501, or a EHEIM 2213 classic. what do you guys think?

An AC 20 should be plenty, especially for a planted tank.

With the stock list you gave and plants. An AC20 will be plenty.

I have an AC20 running a 10g with a beta, and its plenty.

would adding CO2 be a problem since the AC filter breaks the surface of the water?

You will have to add more co2 than when using a can or internal unless you keep it topped off 24/7...

I disagree.

Any excess CO2 will be gassed off when it comes to surface agitation...your tank water will still contain some though.
