return pump help

Mag pumps are reliable and easily located just about anywhere. I would recommend a Mag9.5 or a Mag12 for your setup.

You could also look into waveline DC pumps. You can buy a larger model and dial the flow into exactly what you want using the DC speed controller.

Mag pumps, though, add a lot of excess heat into the system's water which is fine in the winter but will become an issue in the heat of summer.

An Eheim 1262 would be perfect
I run one on my 100g total system and it's super quiet

Guess I'll add that I've been running mine since May 2012. I've only cleaned it a couple times and it's never stopped once, or had restart issues. Can't beat it for price vs reliability
