So I have a brackish water tank with a GSP in it. I am going to upgrade his tank and it is a known fact GSP are dirty little things. So I want to over filtrate this upgrade as much as possible. As well this is a planted tank. I have 3 filters for options. I am wanting an HOB and put on a 20 gallon tank. These are the options, in order of which I was considering best to least, but I want your opinion as well. Keep in mind I plan to go carbon-less as well with the filters.
Imagine Bio Power Filter 75 : http://www.kensfish.com/aquarium-supplies/aquarium-filters/imagine-bio-power-filter-75.html
Removes organic film and dust from the water surface Delivers oxygen rich surface water to the filter which enhances the growth of nitrifying bacteria A special skimmer valve also allows water intake from the middle and bottom of the aquarium Provides complete water circulation and filtration For freshwater or marine aquariums Includes 2 BIO 3 Filter Cartridges Filters 350 gph and is rated for tanks up to 75 gallons.
Aquaclear110 Power Filter : http://www.kensfish.com/aquarium-supplies/aquarium-filters/aquaclear-110-power-filter.html

Whisper EX70 Power Filter : http://www.kensfish.com/aquarium-supplies/aquarium-filters/whisper-ex70-power-filter.html
Simple set-up - it is ready to go right out of the box, you only have to adjust the intake tube to the proper depth and plug it in. Simple operation - Timestrip tells you when to change the carbon filter. Access door stays in place while changing filter. Carrier for filter keeps your hands away from dirty cartridges and virtually eliminates drips on floors and furniture. Submerged motor requires less maintenance than previous external models. Scientifically engineered water flow - Rounded shape creates circular flow that prevents sediment from forming in bottom of system chamber. Water is forced through new multi-density carbon filters that suspend the carbon for greater contact and improved filtration. New non-clogging bio-scrubber forces all water to flow over its entire surface. No bypass is allowed. The bristle design provides more surface area for biological conversion of toxic ammonia to harmless compounds. For 45 - 70 gallon aquariums. Filters 340 gph.
