Go with 2x#3's. The 4's are huge in size for a 60 cube. I hate the way they look in my 180 at work.
Shouldn't be a problem even if they are coming from the back, hitting the sides and bouncing off of the front glass to cover the entire tank. They have a good undertow too.
Editing bc I didn't see the vortec option. Do it!
2 friends of mine here with 65 cube builds on here are using them and love them. Pretty clean looking and adjustable.

Instead of one MP40, I would look at two MP10s. The MP10 is $194, and two would cost about the same as the MP40. You cannot hook them up in a master/slave configuration, but you should get all the flow you need. You might PM Jeremy about the MP10. I think he has two in operation in a 60 cube.
I have a 60 cube as well, and I use one MP20, but this is an LPS tank, and does not require as much flow as in an SPS setup.

I have 2 MP10s in my 30 cube!! Its way overkill, and I have them dialed down. I love these **** pumps. The battery backup is SO worth it.
