Questions about tunze's and sea swirls

Ok so Im buying up parts for my next tank, a 180g peninsula. Part of the flow design will be two sea swirls with tunze's strapped to them. Both located on one short end of the tank.

First question, will the sea swirls(they are both 1/2") be able to handle having a tunze(regular, nano, or maxijet mod) attached to them? And will they be able to handle about 500gph of flow from a pressure rated pump with eductors on the end?

Secondly, I am looking for enough flow to reach the other end of the 6 ft tank(mostly SPS up top), i think 1000-1500gph should do fine. I was thinking of trying to pick up two used Tunze 9045's(one for each sea swirl), or doing maxijet mods. Are the newer maxijet mods capable of being put on a wavemaker without clicking or anything?

If i do end up using tunze's would I be able to use a single controler on the nano streams?
