Im setting up a 165 gallon tank and will be running my return through my middle overflow box. Its going to go through the overflow then split into 2 using all PVC. Question is should i go 1" PVC then to 3/4" when it splits or just go 3/4" all the way. BTW pump is a Rio HF32 (1920 GPH @ 0ft)

I would have used 1 x 3/4 slip bushings rather the slip x female, 2 less fittings & doesn't have the neck down like the inside of a male adapter.
