Well I ended up getting the tunze 6055 because the 30 is small I don't like the look of the mp sitting on the side, it creates an eye sore for me in a small tank. In a large tank you wouldn't notice them. I like the reliability of the tunze over the dry side of the mp. I can hide it in the corner and you won't see the tunze. I like being different than everyone else. Haha I'll update when I get it and have it going.
