Which filter for 30g planted tank?

[Jetstorm369]

Hey guys, I'm thinking an aquaclear 70 will be sufficient. I plan on removing the carbon filter since I'm having plants. Any advice/input will be appreciated, thanks!

The 70 might be too much water flow for a planted tank.

I'd say you can get away with the AC50 in this case. I agree an AC-70 maybe a bit much in terms of flow/current. HOWEVER ... if you can adjust the flow on the AC's (don't have one) and your thinking of upgrading to a larger tank down the road, then an AC-70 should do nicely.
