Welcome to MR. Good to see you ask questions BEFORE you buy anything. In addition to the list above, you'll need some sort of filtration and something for water circulation. A FO (fish only) tank doesn't necessarily need a protein skimmer. However, if you elect not to use a protein skimmer then you should use some sort of mechanical, chemical, biological filtration. An aquaclear filter (oversized IMO) would work. You might also want to put a small powerhead in the tank for water movement. swimmer

Canister filter is fine. Just have to clean it regularly about every 2 weeks.
