Honestly, this is the part. I struggled with the most was the plumbing and trying to figure out a way to get it set up to fit the union actually on the aqua violet fittings itself. I have two pretty large return pumps. I haven’t done the flow measurement yet, but I’m definitely aiming for fish health/parasite maintenance.You are absolutely killing your flow with that step down. You might want to look at getting new 2” rings so you can use the same pipe size.
New unions.

Let me ask you all a question, but turn in the tank water volume over a little less than one time an hour be sufficient for killing fish parasites in the water column I have 1 gallon coming out of the return every 13 seconds
More than double are you trying to kill the algae at that rate? Or still after parasiteThats about 277 gallons an hour so pretty slow flow. Thats going to be fairly effective but theres plenty of people who say our UV’s cant really kill parasites like Ich.
On my 280g system with a single return pump, i have 2 x 55w aquauv one right after another and run 670gph.
