fluval or rena?
wanting to buy a cansiter filter, there is a fluval model that is 10 gallons more than it should be, and there is a rena for a 29 gallon (PS my tank is 29 gallons) also what media would be best for a planted tank...

my rule of thumb is buy the most expensive filter you could afford... i have had penguin 350's on a 20g tanks...

The more expensive one is the fluval, but it doesnt have the proper size for my tank, but the rena does... and it looks better in quality.

I probably will go with the fluval, its meant for 25 gallon aquariums and it a bit cheaper, because I have to buy new lighting I might not be able to spend much more money...

I think you should have more filtration. You're at the lowest amount with no margin for error with the Fluval you mentioned.
