I have a 150 gallon mainly soft coral tank. The dimensions are LxWxH(48x24x30). I was looking into getting a wavemaker to improve circulation and movement of the corals. Was wondering what size you might recommend, placement, and if one pump or opposing pumps is better.

Thank you for any advice.

I agree. Two PP8's and link them to a JBWave controller for wave programming.

You can't do better than a Vortech MP40.
While it has many useful modes, the Reef Crest creates randomized currents that simulate the high energy environment of a reef.
I noticed a night and day difference in my softies' health and vibrancy once I made the switch:
