Alright, that's good, I was worried as I'd read a site saying no filter at all and daily water changes are the only way to go, and that sounds like a pain. I could easily do once a week, but I'd rather not do everyday. Though I'm sure it'll be easier than doing my 55 gallon fish tank at home.

Oh and with your filters, did any of you use sand? I've heard they can clog your filter with the sand and that's what I planned on using. Do you think I'd be better with large stones?

And nope, no names yet. I'm gonna wait until I get them...when can you tell their sex? I can find plenty of info on HOW to tell, but not at what age. I'm heading to Petsmart on Sunday to get a tank, filter, dechlorinator, thermometer, etc. It's always exciting getting a new pet.
