ok, i'm thinking about adding another filter to my 10 gallon tank. i already have a Tetra Whisper Power Filter 10 running, but i dont think it's enough. I could buy a more potent one, but then what would i do with the one i have? so, i've decided to use 2 filters: the one i have + a small one. I would like to know your opinions on the ones i've been thinking about:

Penguin BIO-Wheel Mini

or

Aquaclear Mini Power Filter

Which one? i guess i tend to get the Penguin one, since it has also biological filtration, but what do you think?
 
If you are making a purchase, I would go with a penguin 125 or an aquaclear 150 (or whatever they call that size now) The mini's are decent, but for $3 more you can get a filter that will handle a larger range of options and/or tanks in the future. I run an AC 150 and an RFUG on my tens, and a penguin 125 and an RFUG on my 15g. Sponge filters are decent as well, but I personally refuse to use air pumps on my tanks.

the reason i've thought about the "minis" is because of their sizes... it's a 10 g tank afterall. there's not a lot of space... but i'll look into those you mentioned. thanks!
