I had two in my system at one point. They're big and not very powerful for the size, but they function just fine. I'd go with a Mag instead, if you're using it for a return pump. I switched to a Mag 7 and it was way more powerful at 4 feet of head, despite the Mag 7 being rated at 700gph and the Via Aqua 2600 at 740gph.
