there are many good brands out there that will work fine. The mag 9.5 is a very good pump, but too strong to run through a uv. Uv's need the water running through slow to maximize the contact time, in order to work well. Which ever uv you buy read the instructions on how fast the water should be passing through. Most uv's work best with about 200- 300 gph, your pump put out about 950gph. You would need to install a tee with a valve to use that pump or install a seperate pump for the uv. If the water runs through too fast the uv will not work well.
