It's entirely possible I'm just being dense...but I'm not sure exactly what you're asking for. Could you please clarify?

Excuse my dumbness but what are sand reactors?

I'd drill a third hole in your overflow and run a bean animal, if you really don't want to drill a new hole use a herbie.

I'd also add a baffle to regulate the water level for your skimmer. Run your overflow drain pipes to the skimmer pump input area ending 1/4" below the water level. Run your return pipes to the holes in the top outside the overflow. I'd go with 1" pipe as well and use a T to split it near the top.

Best of luck and enjoy.

Not what you were asking but, 12" width overflow with a tank length of 36". Man that's an enormous overflow with regards to taking up space.
