Which one would you prefer/recommend and why do you think the filter you picked is better than the other.

I don't have any experience with any of these filters but I have heard good things about the aqua one and nothing good about fluvals canister filters
Those who say money can't buy happiness don't know where to find puffers.

running 5 Fluval canisters for years and would buy another one tomorrow if i needed another
i don't see a flow control on the Aqua One, and the priming mechanism looks corny
