I have a 75 Gal tank that I am building a stand for. I attached a quick picture that I did in paint, because for the life of me I can't figure out how to use sketchup.

It's crazy what comes off these rocks.

Best most affordable powerhead for 75gal?
I am not in a position to be buying $300-$500 wavemakers, although I would love to.

Return Pump suggestion
75 Gal display
40 Gal Sump
The sump will be in the stand underneath the display.
I was thinking about a Mag 9 return.
Is this a good option or would you pick up something else?

I am sure over time...
