ok, another pump question here.......
i am plumbing my 65 today... it is an aga, reef ready tank with a 1 inch overflow line and a 3/4 inch return line....
i have a mag 12 laying around from a 75g that i had set up a few years ago.... my question to you all is this...do you think a mag 12 is too much for a 65???? the pump is going to be external, and will be about 4.5 feet.
off of the 3/4 outlet of the pump i am goign to tee it off and have one line go to the reef ready return which is 3/4 inch, and the other line i am going to restrict to 1/2 inch to power a 1/2 inch sea swirl per the guy at sea swirls reccommendations.
do you think the mag 12 is too big, and do you see any problems with my plumbign designs? do youthink i should have a ball valve in there anywhere to restrict flow, because as of now i am not planning on it!
thanks in advance guys, any help is appreciated!
good luck
