Which would be better suited for a 75 gallon mixed reef with a semi-heavy bioload? The NW150 or NW200? Im thinking that the 150 will be to small, but at the same time, im not convinced I need the 200. Any thoughts?

when in doubt go with the biggest. the worst thing that will happen is that it will pull out everything you dont want in there anyway. if you go to small it wont pull enough.
