I've always liked Aqua Clear as either a small tank filter or a secondary on a bigger tank. They are a decent price, easy to use and will last forever with regular maintenance.

Bought one of these about a month ago, for the incredibly low power useage (3-8W) and the adjustable flow (2000-5000lph). The flow is concentrated, unlike say the Hydor Koralias that send out a radial pattern. Only hassle I had was with the "vacuum screw" used to mount the powerhead holder to the glass, I managed to shear the screw thread while exeperimenting with how to install it! Thankfully, Aquacadabra were brilliant and got in touch with Aqua Medic, who sent me a replacement mounting kit within a few days.
