The Filter in My 20G Freshwater Aquarium is getting old and will soon need replacing. I was looking at replacing it with one of the Fluval U series, and underwater filter. In particular the U2, which is meant for 15-30Gs. Has anyone had experience with this particular filter? Or do you recommend something else? i have a Fluval heater and am quite pleased with it.

Now my aquarium has a few requirements, one being its a planted tank with fish. second do to the design of the tank and stand i have less than an inch between the wall and the back of the tank, just enough for wires. now the architecture of my tank and stand can't move or change so the filter has to be internal and fit in the tank 

Thanks for your opinions

Hello Starrfish,
Hummm, well if a hang-on-the back is not possible due to space then you are limited to internal or a canister filter. You might consider a sponge filter. I have them in a bunch of my tanks and they are sensational. You will not be dissapointed with a canister if you can afford the expense. Enjoy your fish! SGN

I have used sponge filters before at a job at a pet store. They work great!
