If you don't care about wave-making and other fancy features like speed control, I'd suggest a pair of Tunze 6045s - one at each end crashing flow into each other in the middle. On sale now at BRS.

A pair of maxspect gyre's like 230s on each end would be great for movement. If you want to save some $, maybe look into icecap gyres. Another way to save money, only difference between a 130 and 230 is advanced controller. If you can get 230 with advanced controller, just get an extra 130 standalone gyre, and you are set.
