Is my Pan World pump ok for manifold of reactors

I have a Pan World 40 pump sitting around. I was going to use to feed a manifold I made for a phosband, and rainbow sand filter 500. I will most likely add a calcium reactor and nitrate reactor hopefully this year.

At first I was also going to the same pump as a mixing pump but changed my mine. I have 2 45 gallon tanks for r/o storage and salt mixing. But I change my plumbing around and so i am just going to get a different pump. So if the pan world isn't strong enough for all my reactors than I can use it for my mixing station.

It would be easier to use a submersible pump to feed the reactors anyway. Any recommendations. I don't care about noise since my fuge and sump are in my garage. I was looking at some quiet ones or a mag? Just wondering about how many gph would be enough?
