I am looking for suggestions on plumbing a sump. I have a 6ft tank which will soon have a 1" drain in the back of each end. I plan on circulating 700 to 1400 gph. The two pumps I plan to use have 1" inlets and 3/4" outlets. I found some black 1" hose in the pond maint. section at Home Depot that I am planning on using for the drains. I am looking for ideas on the return lines. I would like to spread the flow out as much as possible. At this point I am thinking of putting in two spray bars the full length between the overflow boxes top and bottom.
I am also trying to find suppliers for;
Foam filter for the pump suction pipes 1"id by 3 to 5"od by 8 to 12" long.
3/8" and 1/4" acrylic sheet for building sump or some one who has an old tank for sale that will fit a 16 X 30 foot print. Although I can modify the stand some to make room for a longer sump if need be.
Walter I still need to come by and look at you setup and those fine fish.
