My Mag 12 is only my main return pump. It pumps through vinyl tubing into
my 25 watt Aqua UV then on to 3/4" PVC which is split into two return lines.
I have the Allglass 125 pre-drilled with dual over flows in the corners. It
does have to go through a lot of tubing and PVC and several elbows, and it
still does an awesome job. I have had it for a couple years now, and all I
have had to do is replace the impeller once. FWIW
