Small Tank Filter

If i have a small tank like 20-30 ltrs wat type of filter is best?

I'm not good with liter sizes, but if thats about a 6-10 gallon, I like Whisper filters, myself.

Ideally you want your filter to turn over you entire tank 5-7 times per hour, so I would look for a filter with a flow of 25-35gph for 5gal (20litres) or 40-56gph for 8gal (30litres). In such a small tank, I would probably go with a HOB (hang-on-back) filter so as to maximize the space you have available.

Another option would be an AquaClear Mini or 150 power filter with a sponge and BioMax media.
