I like the XP2 for a 29. They are also easy to run and take care of. Most of the canisters they are comeing out with lately are very simular, so it really doesn't matter. Just look for one that is rated for more that what your tank is, It is not uncommon for the companies to over rate thier equipment.

I would go with a fluval 304....more filter than you need, but you can never have too much current, filtration in a salt tank, especially if you want to have a reef. I think they have a newer version of the 304 out now. :notsure:
They are quiet, easy to run and maintain.....a big bonus, you will be changing the media every 30 days. I have one (404) to run carbon, phosphate media etc. Just rinse the filter foam out and reuse, or keep back up foam pads for quicker cleaning. I absolutely love these canisters. I ran one (304) on my 46g salt tank for years, no problems. I haven't had any problems with this one either.

the h.o.t. magnum 250 is the easiest canister filter to work with, imo.
