Welcome to the sickness!!

Ive been using a Jeabo DC9000 (running @ 20%) for slightly more than a year issue free so far. Ive had Eheim 1260/1262's in the past that run trouble free for many years.

Welcome to the club! For a 55, I think trying to flow 700 GPH through your sump is too much. As a general rule, I try to shoot for 5X the tank volume, 10X the sump volume. So you would likely want between 200-250 GPH. For that, a DC12000 would be WAY oversized. I am using that on my 125, and I run that at 50%.
