Default Return pump question

Ok, getting real close to getting my mom's tank ready.
Will be a 75G with 30G sump.

I slapped together a pic with Sketchup to show my thoughts.
Was hoping to run a return pump with about 1000 to 1200 GPH as the SCWD says that it can handle up to 1400 GPH max, so figured I would play it safe.

It is the smaller SCWD so has ¾ inch ends so that will also limit the return pump I use.

Now as the image shows I was hoping to run flex hose from the pump to a ball valve then to the SCWD and then flex to the 2 T connections.
Does anybody see any problems with this configuration (other than the pipes don’t connect properly in the pic’s)

Also what would somebody recommend for a good (and quite ) pump for this?



Thanks everybody for all there help with this over the past year or two or three...
