Cheapest place I've found them is on Amazon, unless another online shop is running a sale on them.

+1 to Amazon for the AC filters!

I got mine for like... half the price of the chain pet stores.

they are at a very good price on amazon. Also i've been seeing Fluval Power Filter's by the same company that makes aquaclear, are they basically the same thing or is 1 better than the other?

won't apologize again for asking all the questions but since i'm still kinda new to puffers this new tank i want set up perfect for them and i don't mind spending the extra money and doing it right the 1st time. and btw thank you all for being overly helpful with everything! Have to admit taking care of these guys and seeing all this info about them makes me feel like a newbie again with aquariums :)
