1200 gph will only be a gental current out of two 1" holes. you need an ampmaster to get what you are expecting I think. you can try plug two holes or three and see what the flow is like from 1 pump but remember if you double the size of the hole you increase the flow capability by 4X if i remember that rule properly. I have a magdrive 5 doing the closed loop on my 25 gal an d to get deicent flow i had to go to five 1/4" holes.
