Default Which filter system should I use for my new saltwater tank?

I am converting my 55 gallon freshwater to saltwater. I am only going to do about 8 smaller fish and a little live rock. I know live rock helps as a filter, but I am wondering what to use. Should I go with an undergravel filter with a couple powerheads or a strong hang-on filter? If I choose either one, what kind of power should be looking for in the powerheads or hang-on filter in terms of gph? Also looking for any good reference sites for saltwater aquariums.
