a 404 should be fine just set up the spray high at the top of the water level and a power head would not hurt at the other end placed at the top aiming down (901) powerhead is what i use.

I haven't had a problem with my fluval 404, but have heard that the rubber seal does tend to break and leak. I would get an ac300 up in it as well or another filter besides the fluval.

Dont rely just on your FluVal for oxygen alone. A powerhead (with/without an uplift tube) or even a bubble wand would also be a sufficient add on.
