I have been working on setting up my 40 Breeder and I have a Modular Marine 800 gph overflow. The overflow came with 3/4 uni-seals which i have no issue with. What I am trying to figure out is my return lines. I have so far set up two returns 1/2" pvc that will be connected to the return via a T fitting and ball valves on each return line. Will 1/2" returns be good enough? I am using a Reef Octopus Varios 2 rated at 792 gph full power but I will also run a T to my fuge and my BRS dual reactor.

I already have the 1/2" Loc-Line so if I had to I guess I could run 3/4" from the pump to the fuge and reactor then up the back of the tank to the Loc-Line where I would reduce it at the tank to 1/2"???

Thank you in advance
 
Well....due to the lack of responses and my inability to wait another day I have the tank running in the garage doing a leak test and it seems to be fine. Thanks all.
