Manifold project finally on its way...

[DrHarryLopez]

Working on a manifold to handle all my pumping needs, but retrofitting a system is such a PIA!

Far left valve = main display tank ~ 15' horizontally away
2nd valve from the left = Refugium ~ 10' away
3rd = Lagoon 55g
4th = bio pellets
5th = 50 g redundancy drum

A Pump that can handle all the head.. 1900 gph

I'm a big fan of the one pump runs all theory as the cost of electricity rises.
Plus it adds less heat into the system than all those little Maxijets everywhere!

Economical, efficient, and excellent work!

Whats the purpose of the redundancy drum? to add water volume?
