Pen 170 is fine then. U don't want your water to be stagnent. U need current to properly filter the tank.
Thanks for the help Tigerfish.

when you try to reduce flow in penguin filters it usually causes the bio-wheel to stop spinning, and that would be a bad thing. depending on stock, you might even be underfiltered. i run a penguin200 on my 10g, and when i had my 40g running it had an ac110 and a penguin 200 on it, but i tend to overfilter.
