what would be the ideal external filter for a jewel trigon 190 tank.(50g corner tank) tank contains smal community fish. is it possible to over filter, don't want to create a wirlpool !
 
Over-filtering is not something you should really worry about--creating too strong a current could possibly be an issue for some fish/setups.

Do you want a canister or hang on back filter?
 
i want a canister, maybe fluval 105,205,305,405?
 
I have a fluval fx5 but haven't used any of their smaller canisters. I have not heard the best things about them... maybe someone can chime in.

Maybe a Rena XP3? I own one... but I actually haven't used it! It seems good quality and I hear good things, and you can usually find them cheap.

If money isn't an issue... Eheim supposedly makes great smaller canisters (and bigger ones too).
 
thanks for the help !
