What size UV should I have for a 300 gal tank and 500 gal system.

What brand should I consider?

You probably need an 80w unit or so. Check some of the sponsors and see what size they rate the UV units they sell. Aqua UV seems to be a trusted name

Is there a better way to connect them to the system? IN line? or with there own pump?

what are you trying to accomplish with the UV? in that upper range they get pretty pricey, is it something that ozone can manage? just asking. I do run ozone and UV on my reef... as a back up.
