Can someone suggest a good and quiet wave maker with a controller for my Red Sea Max E-260? I will have both coral and fish in it? The cost must be reasonable not the 2 to 3 hundred dollar ones...

Yup^^^.

There’s a couple eBay sellers stateside here in California that will sell individual heads , the dual controller and the correct power supply for them, rather than dual controller and dual power supplies too. You may have to contact them for a bit of help with that. I did.

Iv'e been looking at the eFlux. what are your thoughts on it. Is it quiet? Will one be sufficient for the E-260? Which model do you have and for what size tank? I'm looking at the model

I have the 2100 on 20g lol.
Ill be doing a tank upgrade sometime soon and didnt want to purchase twice.
Still quiet they run on 20 percent surge 10s intervals.

What corals are planning on? If going sps dominate i would also choose the 2100 and decrease flow till sand storm is gone. 45x70 is 3150.
Yesterday i purchased the bluetooth controller for them. With this need the accessory pumps not full set. They are running a 50% deal on the bluetooth.
$49 + $168= $217 for 2 pumps app controlled.

They included 2 speakers for free, not sure if this is the norm or just for first purchases.
They make wave sounds for storm features, not sure why this is a feature tbh.
Forgive the wire mess i real quickly installed and didnt do any wire management or get rid of the wires for the ir controller.

Also adds a temperature sensor, so can see the temp of the tank from your phone when near enough for Bluetooth:
