If you plan on running it through a SCWD it should be fine. You will get about 550-650gph.

Perfect for that size tank.

Thats what I run on my tank which is almost the same.

it has one input and two output that split off your return to two returns that have alternating currents works to make alternating currents in you tank, a lot of people use them instead of wave makers.
