i read the calfo site and saw the manifold. i think i might do that. but again he did it with a pump from the sump and ran 1 return and broke it off like 7 times with tee's. that's what i was thinking. i wonder that it would be unsightly to see pvc at the top of the tank? i'll try it out.

and i read that because mag pumps are magnetically driven it's ok to throttle it down but when you throttle down direct drive pumps it does damage to the pump. and wears it down (lifespan). just to let you guys know if you don't know.

i'll draw up a manifold type return and tell me what you guys think. i'll post it later when i have time to do it. then i'll figure out the pump to pick to run it. thanks
