So I need to know which to use, monster manual or vault? The vault has better health and AC and stuff for better balancing but has less monsters like snakes and rats, So is it really better then the manual or can I make due with the manual 1?

You can use both but the monster vault has all the monster updates for 4E.

I think the monsters in the Vault are a lot better, but like you said, there's a lot missing. You can definitely use MM1(as well as 2 and 3), and if you also have the Vault you may be able to tweak the old monsters to fit with the better math of the Essentials. The biggest difference is in the solo monsters. They're much tougher and more fun in the Vault, and really feel like boss fights.
