What is a good filter for my 38 gallon fish tank?
The tank came with Tetra Whisper 30 but i didn't like it because of the biobag.
Then I bought a Millieum 3000 wet/dry filter, which is doing ok.
But I was thinking of buying a Bio Filter because I heard they do alot of good cleaning.
And also any suggestions for types of Bio Filters i might want?

your wet/dry should have a sponge or something that does biological filtration. biolgical filtration can't be done if it is completely immersed. thats why its a wet/dry filter.
you can use cannisters that have the ceramic bits for housing colonies of bacteria. you get a lot more surface for growing bacteria than in anything else.
bio-wheels do the same thing your wet-dry does -- only yours provides more space for bacteria colonies i think.

Marineland Bio wheel power filters and magnum 350 pro with bio wheels. I have them both and they work good for me. Easy maintenance. ><>:)

you should be fine with your filter but i would also recommend the Rena xp3 canister filter mine is running no problems and it keeps my african cichlid tank sparkling...
good luck

Ditto to G, your filter has you covered quite well
