120 filtration help

[stomper160]

Ok, I have a 120 up and running. No major problems, but I'm just not satisfied with my filtration setup. Currently, I am currently running a Tetra Tec 500. The thing is noisy, the water flow is uneven and simply seems like a piece of junk. Has anyone else used this filter? What kind of filtration should I be running on this size tank? Anyone have any better options I should change too? I only keep three 8 inch cichlids in the tank with a few silver dollars. Thanks.

Well if finances is not much of a problem. Get an Eheim 2250 or 2260 preferably the 2260. Otherwise get a couple Aqua-clear 110 (formerly 500) to hang on back but keep in mind the cost of 2 aqua clears will run you 150-200 dollars. The good theing about AC is that they don't keep nickel and diming you
