Good luck with that
A PCX pump will probably heat the tank less than that Mag 12 will.

I also can consider the fact that I am taking an internal pump out with my current skimmer.

Absulutly! I still think it will heat your water slightly more than what you have now,.. but maybe not,.. It really depends on the pump you choose to use with it though.

Ya, the PCX 55 heated the water pretty good,.. but the 30 not so much. The reason for that I immagine is that the PCX 55 is a 170W pump and the Iwkia is far less than that.
If you find something fan cooled it will be louder but tend to heat the water less. Just remember to get a pressure pump for this application,.. not a closed loop high flow pump.
