New 500lt tank

[Gil_ptm]

Hello,
All my live I have had freshwater tanks. Now I am moving to my dream tank! A reef tank
I am in the process of gathering stuff to make my build. I am at the budget and trying to buy 2nd hand stuff and lower brand stuff. My question for today is what a budget wave maker for my tank. I was looking at Jebao mcp 120 gyre pump or Jebao mlw-30. Anyone with feedback of these pumps? The tank has 500lt with 150cm length. Would 1 do the job or 2 pumps?

For side to side cross flow, I would go with 2 gyre style pumps for a 130 gallon tank.

Something like one Red Sea reefwave 25 and one reefwave 45

Have no clue about a jebao’s quality or like span?
