New Pump Size?

[wickedwes]

hey all. i am currently using a rainbow lifegard quiet one pump to run my 120 gal. long tank. i also have a mag 7 running my berlin protein skimmer in my sump. my quiet one pump does not seem to be working as well as it used to and i am in need of a new pump. i also have a lifeguard uv sterilizer that i am going to "t" off of my return pump. my question is what brand of pump and size would you recommend to run the return and the uv? thanks for the help

what is the gph on the quiet one ??? the uv deosnt need much gph so match the gph you have also look into a mag pump they work well

i believe that it is 1140 gph at 0 head and like 724 gph @ 4' head. i think that my overflow can handle 1200+ gph (it has 2 - 1" lines). i would like to set up a refugium and also "t" it off the return pump so i would like to have a large enough pump that can handle the return, uv & possible the refugium.
thanks
