Ecotech, Maxpect, Jebao, Tunze are some of the most popular brands. I would check Bulk Reef Supply for an idea on pricing. I believe they also have a video(s) comparing some of the different wavemakers.

Nice tank BTW!

Add Neptune WAV pumps to the list.

I have seen reviews of the Neptune pumps with the complaint of noise, Has anyone experienced this? I really like quiet stuff

I've been running WAV pumps on my 120 gallon tank for over a year now. They are extreamley quiet even at 95%. I replaced two MP40 pumps and they provide a lot more flow with almost no noise at all except the noise from the water boiling at the surface during their high flow period. My only complaints with them is that I wish they had a greater angle of adjustment and they have a larger in tank footprint that MP pumps. I certainly would no go back to the MP pumps primarily because they are so much quieter.
