what tpe of filter would best be use for these tanks?

5 gallon tank

10 gallon tank

15 gallon tank
 
It depends alot of what and how many fish your putting in?

You can never have too much filtration is something alot of people say... if its for your pets I would say mechanical hob would be best for the 10 and 15 (5 maybe but its a small tank so im not sure)...

People through change over numbers like 3 cycles per hour or greater for freshwater or 5 cycles or greater for salt.... ie 15gal tank x 3 cycles per hour means at least 45 gal/hour filter

but im sure you could through at penguin 130 on it it would be fine
