How do you filter a Paludarium Tank?

Canister sounds like a great idea. You could probably get different nozzles for a spraybar as well to create some sort of waterfall effect. if you wanted to supplement you could get what fishboy pointed out, or a couple of cheap internal filters or micro-filters most people would get for a turtle tank for example. Some are so small they'd be easy to hide with a few plants.

I wish the LFS I visit about once a month had a website with pictures cause he has several display tanks which have multi water levels. They're really cool.

Funny you should mention turtle tank... Theres a place around the corner from my house called Wild Things....Has turtles and fish and plants and gheckos all in one tank. Its pretty sweet! Problem is.....turtles eat fish.....lol dont get too attached. :) They use a turtle filter for everything. Its in a 75 gallon tank.....and its REALLY cool.

I think if I do this I will go with a submersible filter. I cannot afford a canister, they are just way too expensive!

thanks for the input guys :-)

You can always upgrade too. :)

When I upgrade to a canister it will be for my African tank :-) My planted tank stays very clean due to the fish I have and the plants.

So, any upgrades go to my Africans, the spoiled brats LOL
