im going to have a closed system filter and the pump im thinking about using has smaller threads than what im plumbing with. Would it be ok to just downsize the pipe to the threads of the pump and then after the pump make it go back up. For those who dont get what im asking heres an example.
3/4 inch pvc from tank>3/4 inch to 1/2 inch reducer>pump>3/4 inch to 1/2 inch reducer> 3/4 inch pvc back to tank.
Could the pump still work and pull water through correctly even though i would be downsizing at the pump ports.
