Clowns-6 is a group and more is never too many, providing the aquarium is large enough.

your results could be a bit statisticaly odd, as HOBs are not common in the UK, but i think they are very popular in the US?

External canisters with additional power-heads are my way.

HOB's are not common in the Uk? What do they use for small tanks like 10 gallons? UGF's or sponge filters?

You can find some aquaclear HOB's here in the UK but not many people seem to purchase them. Small tanks can be equipped with all of what you stated with also small internal canisters.
