How big is your tank?
I recommend the Eheim Classic 2217 for it's volume or the Rena Filstar xP3 for ease of use and features. I have both and they are both fine filters but if pressed I would choose the xP3 (up to 75G) unless it is a larger tank with a lot of waste (90G or more with several big fish).

I have both the 2217 and the xP3. Although the 2217 is absolutely silent, I prefer the xP3. I find it much easier to clean and maintain and it is pretty darn quiet too.
the classic,
i love the way it filters and how the water does not mix.
just make sure you get the taps, make it real easy to clean.
can not beat the classic design

I believe he meant the quick disconnect valves for the intake and output tubing.SMS;1929829; said:
Eheim 2217 online can be had for $100. They are much cheaper than most of the filters you listed.SMS;1929762;1929762 said:
He means the double taps which are basically a quick disconnect with a ball valve on both sides.SMS;1929829;1929829 said:
