[reef fish]

runing a reeflo dart the in put is 2'' and out put is 1.5 is it bad to put a reducer in the out put like it starts at 1.5 put a true union valve of 1'' and then reduce the pipe to 3/4 ???????

What are you using the 3/4" pipe for? It is not bad, they are high pressure pumps, so it will up the velocity quite a bit.

pump out put 1.5
1.5 x 1'' bushing 4'' long 1'' nipples 1'' true union 3/4 check valve
all plumbing in 3/4 but input will stay at 2''

As I understand, the dart pumps love pressure on their outflow and actually get more efficient with back pressure. Just never restrict their inflow.
