Default Closed loop advice

Well since I'm not having any luck acquiring the new tank I want I'm just going to go ahead with a closed loop system on my current 65 gallon tank.

So what kind of flow should I be looking at for a 65 gallon tank? (36x18x24")

Are there good pumps and bad pumps for closed loops?

Is there a specific configuration that I should consider as far as hole placement for the intakes and exhausts?

I have hole saws for 1" and 2" bulkheads and plan to hard plumb everything.

thanks,

Danny
