help with equipment selection for 270 gallon

Just a basic manifold.

Installed a 1 1/2" x 1" tee on the return line. Manifold itself is 1" with a ball valve for isolation and a union for maintenance. Used 1" x 3/4" tee with ball valve for future refugium or frag tank and 1" x 1/2" tees for the reactors with ball valves for flow control and 1/2" John Guest style fittings. 1/2" OD polly tubing to the reactors then manifolded the returns from reactors with isolation valves on each as well.
Excuse the wiring mess, just moved my Apex over from other tank and still getting everything hooked up and organized.

Thank you.

What is the purpose of running the effluent of those reactors through that plumbing with the valves? Looks like it just dumps it back into the drain area. Just curious. Thanks!

No purpose other than an attempt to keep things orderly and secured. Since I tied the effluents into a common header, I added vales for isolation if I want to take a reactor offline. And yes it just dumps back to the sump in the return section.
