2x6055 enough for 120G?

I am planning a mixed 120 (48" x 24" x 24"), most likely bare bottom. Will have fish, some soft corals, and some SPS (would like to keep my options open). I am trying to decide whether 2 of the new 6055s will be enough flow, or whether I need two 6000s instead. I will also have ~500 gph from the return pump. I like the 6055s because they look better and are smaller, but they provide roughly 25% less flow. I know that it's going to be a while before 6055s are available. I am prepared to wait.

Thanks.
 
This set up should work unless you get heavily into acros. In that case the 6000's are better mainly because they can be upgraded to 6100's
