It's 18gallons (66 litres).

I'd suggest a fluval 3.

Fluval 3 : Filters & Sponges

Easy and good at what it does.

100 watt will be fine.

I'm liking TetraTec Heaters at the moment.

Or a 50w Eheim Jager heater is very good too.

The fluval filters are prone to clogging and breaking. Look at the eheim aqua ball filters, they don't go wrong ever. Or the rena IV series, again very reliable and efficient. Bit more costly than the fluval but you get what you pay for
