2 of these, with 2 tubes to each 5gal bucket will be more than enough along with at least 4" air stone pillars.
I use 1 air pump per 12gal cooler that contains 10gal of soultion.
My yields say enough.

These are the 2, 4 and 6 inch pillars.

More air is a good thing so its all up to you.
Pillar air stones are the best.

u can grab the 2 like flo said, or they make 1 unit thats an 8 port....i bought one a year ago and it took a shit last week, so i got another...i think the first one i had shorted out when i had a bad thunderstorm, i dont think it was the pumps fault...cause my buddy has had his(same one) for 4 years, same pump....my local hydrostore sells them for $45, but if u shop online,(i try not to that much) im sure they are cheaper online somewhere

The Hailea Aco-9630:
960L/hour or 16L/min
240gal/hr or 4gal/min
15 watts of power consumption
That baby pumps some serious air !!

If big bro hadn't already found my avatar for our coolers, I'd have to cop one of these bad boys !!!

Looks like you need the 8" disk from Worm's Way : http://www.wormsway.com/detail.aspx?t=prod&sku=SRAS608
Once big bro gets the 460gph model and test it out, it'll be an all go.
The 1100gph model he has is a bit too much.
And at a price approx equal to 2 of those above 8", we have to find out.
Let's face it, we all have to replace our stones at some point and the Oxygen Infusor looks to be a better investment in the long run.

I used to use the 4 outlet pumps. 3 or 4 per cooler, 12 to 16, 6 inch air stones per cooler.
Now I'm on a new kick. 110L per minute.
One hose into the cooler and a Rube Goldberg bubble system on the bottom.
Needed more of the right sized bubbles and couldn't find it in the stores so I made it.

Can't say.
Sorry, I have a few things cooking and can't disclose.
I'll share a lot here with riu'ers but some parts of this thing need to be kept on the low-down for now.
Just the way it is,,,,,,,,

I use the Hailea 6 way pump and when the diaprams go its easy as shit to replace them plus the pump strength adjusters handy and its not to loud when running up full power, and its cheap!
I also got
Hap Hi Blo 120 Ltr Air Pump
A great value air pump for medium to large Koi ponds.
Special artificial rubber to keep a steady air output and pressure.
Advanced air-compressing system, damping system and multilevel muffler which is extremely low in noise.
The stucture is reasonable and compact, it is long service life and acquiring best effect with lowest energy consumption.
Aluminum alloy case,quick in heat-dissipation and easy to move.

Which beleave it or not when the bit for multiple air stones was attached it was a little bit quiter than the 6 way hailea pump i have!
