I was planning on going with an HOB like an Emperor 400 but it was suggested that I go for a canister instead. From what I read, using an HOB helps oxygenate the water. Since I will not be using one, what are the "best" ways to get oxygen into the water? I prefer something that isn't too visible (kind of why I didn't want to use a canister). I feel the equipment will affect the attractiveness of the tank and fish.
On a side note. What types of things should I look for in a canister. More bays = better? It seems like the more bays you have the better the canister would be so you could have more media (different types). What media is worth putting in the canister (carbon, ammonia, etc..)?
