If you follow Mike's suggestion of buying a CPR, you will be in a better
position to move towards a full reef system if you want to do that later. The
Eheim is closer to the filtration systems used in the 80s. That might be more
familiar to you.

The Eheim is just a fancy wet/dry filter. If you want to stick with that sort of
technology, you might be able to find another wet/dry that hangs on the back of
the tank.

With a refugium, you're going more to a living filtration system. It's a bit
harder to get everything into balance and keep it there.
