I would go with the Koralida or whatever they are called. Im going to pick one up for my 29 and use the MJ for Saltwater Mixing.

That looks the 1500, and yes you put it on a Seio Controller as a wavemaker. The 1100, 1500, and 2600 models all work off the Seio controller. The 620 and 820 will not work on the Seio Controller.

I think two 1100's would be great, especially if it is an SPS tank. The other 620 may be a bit much, it may not depending on how you have them set up. Remember a wave timer is not the same thing as a Seio Controller. Wave timers merely turn powerheads off and on every so many minutes. The seio controller just lowers the output to 50% then increase back up to 100% creating pulsing waves. It never shuts the powerhead completely off.

I don't know if they are 2600 gph (it says they are on the box) but they put out some serious flow. I wouldn't recommend them if you have a sand bed. My new 54 corner is bare bottom, so it can handle the flow.
I would go with the 1500s, though. I have 2 1100s in my 55 right now and they are just a little less than what I need....

The 1500s are not much larger than the 1100s.
My 2600s are about twice the size of the 620s I have......
