Head to 2 heads... MP10vs 2 RW-8's

Seeing how I can pick up a used MP10w for around 180-200 and 2 RW-8's run about 150. What would be the best solution for a 24x24x18 frag tank. DSA neo Nano 34g to be specific. Thanks for the Input!!

for a small footprint like that, and being a frag tank. i think you could get away with 2x rw4s honestly.

now an mp10 could handle this tank with out a problem at all, and would be completely fine to use. but since its a frag tank, i would want as much random flow as i could to get the best environment i could for the frags to grow. hence why i voted for 2 sources of flow...
