i'm going to drill my tank (125gal). just need to make sure this will work. i'm going with 2 X 700 gph overflow kits from glassholes (one in each corner). they come w/ 1.5" bulkheads- so my plumbing will be 1.5" pvc, right? the return pump will be a mag 18 (1350 gph @ 4"). its got a 3/4" output on it, so the plumbing will be 3/4" and i'll get a 3/4" loc line return kit going to a center return. on the inside of the tank i'll add a 3/4" to 1/2" loc line wye reducer to send the flow in 2 seperate directions. does that sound right for the sump/fuge plumbing?
now, for the CLS... looking for pump recommendations. also, do i use the same sized pvc as the output on the pump? i would like to stick with the 3/4" loc lines since that's the largest that glassholes carries. i would like to split the return from the CLS pump w/ a SCWD to 2 bulkheads, and then the wye loc line reducers again. so there will be 3 bulkheads total for water return, but i'll be able to send the water in 6 directions and with the SCWD i'll have alternating flow. hope this made sense and i appreciate your responses.
