Hi there...

I think that the fluval 205 will be a good filter for that size of tank. You might not want to get the fluval 305 as the current will blow everything out of it way... I think the 205 will be heaps... it will keep your tank nice and clean :)
 
Have you also considered the excellent eheim ecco? Froogle'd for about £55.

Get an Eheim, trust me. I have angels in my 55g with a Eheim and it works great....

But with cost being an issue aquaclear HOB are my favorite HOBs...

If you have the option of an Eheim, a Classic or Pro, then go for it. The ECCO range are not the same build quality as the others, but compete well with the other makes you mention, it is, after all, why they introduced them.

mibson, you will probably get better replies to your posts if you stick to regular font/size/colour, many members don't bother to read posts with non-standard looks.
