Which filter would be best?

Out of these 2 filters which one would be better for a 65 gallon discus tank?
Rena XP3 Canister Filter (Aquariums Up to 175 Gallons, 350 GPH)
Fluval 305 (Aquariums up to 70 gallons, 305 GPH)

Which one would be better?
There is also a possibility that there would be an EHEIM ecco filter for up to 80 gallons on the tank too along with the fluval or rena.
I would get the Rena XP 4 (450 GPH, For tanks up to 265 Gallons) if I could get it for this price http://www.bigalsonline.com/StoreCatalog/ctl3684/cp17290/si1685118/cl1/aquarium_pharmaceuticals_rena_filstar_xp_4_canister_filter?&query=Rena+XP+3&queryType=0&hits=12&offset=0 .

    Even with the EHEIM running too I would go for the Rena XP3. With the water quality needs of Discus its always best to go with as much turn over as you can. Fluvals are nice filters, but I have heard much better reviews on the Rena filters in terms of water quality and ease of maintenance.
