'Narrow Leaf' seems to have been the most popular variety in the past few years. I've found all the different varieties make for a good midground plant to hide the bottoms of stem plants when they lose their leaves.....

I am probably going to get a cannister filter for this tank. How would this one do?- http://www.bigalsonline.com/StoreCat...Type=0&offset=

I just put a Eheim classic into service and really like it. Very quiet. Favorites for most folks seem to be what is reliable and quiet. You can always get a lemon with any brand it seems. For some reason your Big Al's link didn't work for me.

what about fluval? What model fluval would I need? I found a 305 for $66 shipped, but would that be too powerful? How quiet/reliable are fluvals compared to eheims?

Not to muddy the water further, but I think that's simply the mature leaf form of typical Java fern. You'll see that lobed form particularly when the plant is growing emersed, but I've seen large Java fern in tanks with good light and CO2 acquire that form as well. "Tropica" has a more atypical growth form that almost seems pinnate.
