Well there's a couple ways to make a wave maker. You can use an electronic controller that runs powerheads, you can use a SCWD, you can buy a wave box, or u can build a surge tank. Each has it's advantages. Personally I'm using a SCWD and in the near future I have plans for a surge tank.
Prolly the "easy" option is a wave box. But it does take up tank space.

If you're just going for a cheap wave maker then you could get the JBJ one, it's an external controller that your powerheads plug into. It's definitely not the best but, it works. One came with my tank and I've been using it for my filter returns
