Question by Taylor: What filter should I get for my aquarium?
It’s a 50 gallon with freshwater tropical and live plants. I was thinking the Aqua Clear 200/50.
Any other suggestions?
Below $ 60 is preferable.

You should always double your amount of filtering. You’d need 100 gal. filters, preferably in smaller sizes that you can set up.
I, personally, would go with 2 aqua tech 30-60 because I find that the brand works the best for me.

Marineland Emperor 400 Filter System cost is 60 dollars at petco its the best filter.
You should get the aquaclear 70.
Aquaclears filters are really good.
Rena Filstar canistar. Believe me, I went through five different filters including Aqua Clear and this by far was the best. It sits under the aquarium, so hopefully you have a cabinet under the tank or a place to hide it. This is the best if you want a good filter that last, with little maintenance. With Aqua Clear you need to constantly buy prepackaged carbon bags $ $ $ $ overtime. With Rena it’s just a container that’s easy to clean. Plus you can make your on carbon bags. All you need is to buy carbon and material like pantyhose to put the carbon in. I used netted bags that closed with a string. I purchased the bags at PetSmart for about two bucks. Good luck:)!
