Newbie here - wavemaker questions

I use a icecap 2k in my 80 and 2 very tiny power heads for additional surface agitation. Honestly the gyre is amazing. I have different flow patterns for night and day. They both have changes and random intensity.
 
Hi all. I'm Raden from Canada. I've been in Salt water now for 3 years. I have kept freshwater tanks for nearly 25 years until making the jump into saltwater.

My current setup is a 75gal (48"long x 18" deep x 20" high). Mostly softies and some LPS. The time has come to upgrade my power heads. I am on a tight budget and looking at Coral-Box Wavemakers. I'm thinking on getting an RN-1 and a QPS-5 on the other end. According to thier rated gph this should be more than enough for me.

Anyone have any experience with these and would these two together be enough flow in a 75gal?
Well this looks like it was old - BUT - if you are still in the market, I have the exact same tank dimensions as you. I keep one of these on the side, and run it about 75% on the wave setting. It is more flow than I need, but I like it.
