Thanks Tomjay , I will check that out.

Hey Christy , thanks for the ideas , I'm actually going to try adding the zeomag to my reactor today so we'll see how that works for now. I don't really want to switch salts if I don't have to ( never know how things will react to the change ) Just trying to minimize any added steps and costs if need be.
As far as my return , yes i did go with the dart pump for return , it is teed off just past the pump to two 1" lines that feed a seaswirl on each side of the front side corners of the tank. I seem to be getting around 1000 gph or so out of this ( pump also feeds reactors ) I really like this setup as it allows me to get a flow across the front of reef without having anything to obtrusive ( ie : tunze ) located on the front side of the tank. Most setups i see use pumps located at the back or sides of the reef to get the flow to the front side either bouncing off the front pane or cross flow. I find that most of our so called prize corals are located facing the front for optimal viewing so getting a good flow continuously across the front of the reef seems to make sense to me. That being said I do still have 2 tunze 6100's helping out with the flow , but I am able to keep them near the back side which helps keep them a little less noticeable.
