What are the choices these days for high tech filters to make it easier for
the lazy hobbyit? I thinking about stocking my 33 gallon tank again.

The two most important things I've done in the last few months:
- change to canister filters (Fluval-104 on the 20G, Fluval-404
on the 55G);
- bare bottom tank

Water changes now take 1/2 the time they used to.

BTW, bigalsonline.com was the cheapest place to get the Fluvals,
by far.
