Running reactors off return pump or separate pump

[R&J Reefs]

Want opinions and what you guys do ? I’m on the fence for teeing off my return or just having a dedicated pump for the manifold . Space is not a issue in my sump . I’m not going to run a chiller ( where I live doesn’t get super hot and where my tank will be in my house stays very cool .

I run my whole aquarium off of a dart. Return and manifolds to all equipment. Saves on space, electric, etc. Wouldn't do it any other way. I have 2 darts. One for spare and one on the working system. The spare has never seen water over many years. The Dart is a beast!

I run my reactors off a manifold feed by my return pump.

Same here, using my Vectra M1 return pump and manifold to my reactor

I run a manifold in my sump for my reactor and ATS fed by a DCT4000.
