Vortech MP10 vs. MP20

[Dylan]

Before you post links to the search button, or call me an idiot for asking this question over and over again, this one is different.

For my SPS Nanocube 28, I'm going to buy a vortech. I know an MP10 will be enough, but the MP20 will also be plenty dialed down a bit. Would it be better to get an MP20 and dial it down some, or get an MP10 and dial it all the way up? The way I see it is that I will put less stress on the MP20, so there will be less problems. Does that sound reasonable?

What would you guys do?

Thanks,
Dylan

Personally I would get the mp10. With about 100$ difference between the MP10 and MP20, and considering the size of the tank, I think the MP10 would be just as good and you could use the 100$ difference for a another or future reef purchase. Hope that helps.

Okay, I decided on the MP10 for that reason too... thanks!

I read one of the reviews and they said the mp10 does 1800 gph not the 1500 gph so that should be enough.
