I will also check out these websites.
Over 30 years of keeping tanks, I have used every sort of filter possible. I personally prefer canisters. Yes, you can run multiple filters, school of thought being is that you can never filter too much. I don't keep aquatic frogs, but have kept pretty much everything else aquatic from octopii to tetras and everything in between.

As far as brands of canisters, they are all pretty comparable, but I would stay away from that API modular canister. It is ****. Any if the others are fine, where it be eheim, fluval, marineland, ect.
