hi all, I'm doing a seahorse setup, on which I plan on doing hob equitment, I'm doing a skimmer no matter what, so the question occurred to me, do I need the filter? also should I do a canister filter instead of a hob?

so I considered a sump, but every tank I've had with a sump hasn't gone well, one leaked, and flooded my room, and the other didn't work, the filter I want to and planned on using is the aquaclear 60-100g with 3 stage filtration (carbon, sponge, pond matrix) and idk what canister filter but something that is made for 2-3 times my water volume (29 gallons) my skimmer I'm gonna run is a aquamaxx 1.5 hob for 60-100gI’d do a sump. But if it’s hob vs canister filter, run what you want to put in both by us, as well as what filters you olan to use (brand and size please!).
I planned on cleaning once a week when I do water changes, along with changing mediaI have an aquaclear 50 on my 29 planted freshwater tank. It does a good job but you have to replace the sponge very regularly or it becomes a nitrate factory.
