I am pretty new to this pump, so I may not be the one to answer, but if you can afford it, go for the MP40, this way you have all the power you need, you can dial it down and if you upgrade your tank, you don't need to upgrade the pump

It is about $150 more from the MP20 to MP40, if finances allow, that is what I would do.
