Default What filter to use for 120 gal?

In a 120 gal tank, can i just use a canister filter(for bio and mech) or must i use other filters like box filters/UG and do i need air stones? I plan on keeping neon and congo tetras and panda corys.

I would recommend a canister over any other type. Just get one that is rated for twice the size of your tank and turns over about 5 times the volume of water.
