canister filter

What is a good cheap canister filter that I can add to my 100gal cold water tank

If you are looking for a supplemental filter than you have more options. However if you are looking for something affordable to handle the entire tank's filtration then I would suggest going with either 1 or 2 sunsun canister filters. They aren't the greatest or most convenient to work with but they are effective and affordable.

I currently have 3 75gph filters in the tank right now and I wanted to get rid of 2 of them and replace them with a filter as powerful or more powerful

Not for sure if this is a mistype, but you could easily get a Sunsun for under 100 bucks that would put out way more than 150 gph. I got my 530 GPH for under 80 bucks.

That sounds great, is it a fairly quiet filter, because it would be right next to my bed

This is in my bedroom also. I had two aquaclear 70's running that were quite, but the water fall effect would get really loud after some of my water evaporated. I installed the Sunsun with the spray bar attachment (included in the kit) and I literally have to look at the water movement to tell that it's on. Very little noise.

That sounds perfect, do you know the model that you have, I'll definitely consider that

It is HW-304
