Canister filters, (as many may know,) are used primarly for biological filtering. This is because of the expanded surface area available for bacteria to colonize on.
With the canister you have, as well as an UGF for mechanical filtration, I could not justify the price for your system. Quite simply, you don't need it.
If, however, you had only a filter system with poor biological filtration, (such is the case on my 45 Gallon, where I use an Emperor in addition to my Whisper,) a filter outfitted with a bio-wheel, such as my Emperor, may do you good. Otherwise, simply unneccesary on your current set up.
If, however, you were simply curious about the overall effect of a bio-wheel, you can listen to those who have spoken before me. It gives provides an area for anerobic and aerobic bacteria to colonize on.
I believe the anerobic can only colonize on the filter cartridge itself though, as most will be unable to survive in an enviroment exposed to oxygen.
