Hi everybody
I'm in the process of cycling a 40 gallon, but I've only got one filter so far. It's an AquaClear 70 with the a big sponge, some ceramic media, and some filter floss I cut out. I know I need another filter if I want goldies, and from what I've gathered a canister filter would probably be a good choice.
I've been looking at these two:

I'm leaning toward the SunSun, because it has decent reviews and seems to be more cost effective, but I'm not sure since I've never heard of the brand. What do you guys think?
