Pump return through the sump side with bulkhead to UV up to return nozzle......... I am running two return pumps...

Hard to see but next to the end of the sump is my UV Lifegard .. it is a long as the side of the sump and hard to find a suitable spot.
So i was thinking of running one pump through the side of the tank - though a bulkhead - UV and straight up to the top of the tank.

I am thinking I will want rubber hose on both sides of the bulkhead.. ?
So maybe rubber flexi hose from pump to bulk head and then again from bulk head to uv?
Or hard plump it.. screwing the UV to the floor of the stand so it can not move...
ideas?

Very similar to what I had set up. Assure the pumps aren’t competing for flow
