could someone please advise on what model ocean clear would suit me best. I have a 200 gallon galvanized horse trough i keep my spotted turtles in. Do i need mechanical, biological or chemical filtration. Not sure on what I need any help would be appreciated.

Unless money is no problem, I wouldn't worry about the chemical and biological filtration as long as you are doing frequent water exchanges. For mechanical filtration, I recommend the J325

Pump: Go with the PM20

Plumb with 3/4in poly tubing and poly fittings. What you'll have is a filter that will last for a very long time and will keep your water clean!
