I have just finished cycling my 72g and am slowly making it a reef tank, what kind of pumps do I need for proper water flow?

it depends. I have a wet/dry and use a Quiet one 3000 in the sump. also have 2 maxi-jet 1200 plus a 600 in the tank for movement.
AS noted on this board you need a min of 10x water movement. So in your 72 you need at least 720 gph.
