And hook up this pump I already have.

I should be good to go? I will obviously need tubing, clamps etc.

When I plumb this in which part of the sump does it draw from and return to.

How many bio pellets do I put in the vertex and which vertex model for a 160g system with a 40g sump.

Thanks,
Chris
You should be good to go; however, you are going from 3/4 outlet on the pump to 1/2" on the Reactor, this will not be a problem if you have the right fittings. The GPH is "okay" but a little more would be ideal. The best pump hands down for this setup is the Tunze Silence .020

Hope that helps!
