Which is better a mega flow sump or an Oceanic sump. I am going to have fish and corals.

I never liked Megaflow sumps - too small, too geared for the trickle filter biomedia approach, no refuge. I have not seen an Oceanic one so can not comment.

I bought an eshopps RS-200 (30" x 12" x 16") sump and I am not to sure I want to keep it and get something else.

I have the oceanic sump. It's really nice and roomy. Also, you might consider the TriggerSystem sumps. Stay away from the megaflow sump.
