Currently gathering everything needed for my new tank build. Looking at getting the Lifeguard Pro Max UV sterilizer. I want to hard plumb into my return. Question is how can I reduce down the 2” outlet to a 3/4” return line? Please dummy this down for me if possible lol. I’ve attached the unit just in case. Thank you!

You do not want 3/4” returns as your main pipe. At least 1.5” split into two 3/4”. Is this custom tank?
