What will you be keeping? Sps lps mix reef? If you keeping lps and soft corals the jebao cp25 crossflow is okay but if sps the cp25 is not enough. For your info jebao Rw-8 is stronger than the cp25

Then the cp25 or rw8 will be good...

How is the reliability of the cp25? 

[Hilmi21]

So far when i used the cp25 the flow is wider and the flow gets spread evenly in the tank so i guess its reliable in giving wide flow

I have a tank of the same size and also using cp25 and rw8. The flow of cp25 is quite wide and linear but doesn't cover blind spot quite well, that's where you need rw8 to aim at blind spot.
But I would suggest using two rw4 instead of one rw8, if your rock works is covering a lot of volume in the tank.
