QUESTION: filtration for 29 gallon tank

[moganman]

Use some sponge filters and a small AC. Like a 30 or 50.

go with a box of biomax

"The AquaClear flow control will reduce the flow by up to 50% without harming the filters motor or impeller." Is this true? Maybe with this flow control and a sponge at the inlet, AC110 would work. But to be honest, I don't want to create a whirlpool in the tank.

That flow control definitely doesn't reduce it by 50%. It won't be a whirlpool. I had an AC110, Aquatech 30-60, and an AC50 powerhead on a 10g that I was using to hold some fish.

I'd use a 2217, that's me though...

Got a spared cycled 2217, so I try it out to see how it looks. Turn out it is not too bad. Will post the picture when water clear up a little bit. Thanks guys for your advice.
