What filter for my 30 gal?

The ac 30 is not enough of a filter for a 30g tank. Two ac 30s would work. My 30g has a ac 50 and an elite 20. My 38g has two ac50s.
 
.....

When i started i used the Hydor Bravo250. it is a GREAT filter.

Now, currently, i am useinga Fluval canister filter.
 
honestly chekc out the hydro filters....

they dont get enough credit. If you store has some (Big Als) then check them out
 
I am using a Whisper 30-60 on my 38 gallon. I have been happy with it's performance. You should also look at the Emperor 280.
