ok I bought a used 125 Aqueon reef tank with complete setup. I am taking my time to reconstruct, clean, and make mods that I want. Here is my question I just noticed the durso pipe has some drilled holes right at where it bends at top. Is this right? If I look at it then water would drain thought the holes and not come up wher the cage is. Attached is picture. Also the two returns under neath use 3/4 inch. The returns drain down where cionnected to 1 inch flexible tubes. So questioning flow rate
Help understanding used tank durso?

Stock marineland Durso is very similar. The holes help pull water through the cage. The air port at the top allows air to enter with the water, this keeps the Durso from "toilet flushing".
3/4 return line into the tank sounds about right. 1" tubing is okay, you could up that size to 1 1/4", but may make little difference in flow.
