I have on RES named fluffy in a 20 gallon tank by himself. I'm currently saving up for a 75 gallon tank for him. I was wondering about the filter situation. I currently have two whisper in-tank canister filters. What do i do about filtration when he moves to the bigger tank? I know there are other filters, such as under-gravel (i dont use gravel, it gets too dirty and too much to clean). The only one i could think of is the ones that go over the side. But then how do i put a screen on top?

For your new tank I would suggest a canister filter, they sit outside of the tank to amximize swimming space, and just have two tubes running into the tank, an intake and output tube. You can just cut holes in the screen top, that I what I have always done.
