Catherine, don't get me wrong about the pump thing. Any pump will do the trick but pressure rated pumps won't have the head loss.

I'm thinking I'll be going with the Reeflo Snapper pump. I chose it mostly for wattage (I'm on a power budget), and it has the highest head at 0ft. I can't remember if its pressure rated or not.
Thoughts on my pump choice?

I'm about 90% sure that this is the way I'm going to go. I'm going to try and do an external overflow box so I can maximize the space in the tank. I don't want to go BB, so I'm sure that will be a problem I will have to deal with later.
I want a very random flow, so I guess I'll look into an Ocean Motion. I don't think I want to use a SCWD again, because, like you meantioned, of the headloss. I guess that makes my next step figuring out what pumps to use, and how I may want to drill my new tank. Should I be looking at doing a few returns through the back of the glass?
