In a closed loop, yes, but with a reservoir you want as large an inlet as possible. Ideally you'd mount the pump flush with the reservoir so the inlet is actually inside the reservoir. I just switched to a t-line, it made no difference in temps, and it was a pain in the ass to fill. I'm going to switch back to a reservoir when I get a better one. If I have to, I'll tap a huge outlet on it so I can use 3/4" ID tubing for my pump inlet.
