Try what I might I was never satisfied with mine. I even went down to a MJ 600. After much encouragement to do so, I plumbed a manifold (which actually wasn't all that hard) off my main pump and run both my reactors off it.

hmmm, that is a great idea. My return sump is dead silent, it's already throttled back to reduce flow, all it would be is a 1" T with a 1/2" nipple and increase the flow...

Thanks!

Yup, that's what lots of peeps do. Just make sure you have a shut-off valve somewhere !
I just use the stock valves for flow and shut-off. When I need to service them, I'll just unscrew the lids
