    - korith Because I do agree with you but its hopeless to tilt at windmills - smaug For finding the extra dollar! ;) - escamosa 

    Default Best filter for a 20g?

    I'm looking to upgrade the dumpy Tetra 20 I have on my 20g tank (it's very old and noisy). It's housing a few mature black skirts now.

    I am not a fan of in-tank filters, so what's best to buy? Cheap as possible, of course.

    It's going to be a community with cories, tetras, and a DG. I know not to stick the new filter on and remove the old one right away. :)

    Thanks!
    10 gallon with a veiltail betta, 7 neons, 1 ADF, and one neat moss ball.

    20 gallon with 6 female black phantoms, and 1 schwartzi cory

    Marineland with bio-wheel hang on the back or a Fluval canister 250 would be my choices. The HOB is cheaper but the canister is an awesome filter and both are quiet.
    Warning; Bulldog Pleco guarding my Sons tank now..

    Please remember; every keystroke has a consequence.
