I currently have a 150 gallon with a herbie overflow and a single line return which Ts of and splits into two 1/2 lockine returns. I’m looking to convert the herbie overflow to a bean animal (using the return line hole as the third required hole) and drill two holes in the back of the tank for returns. I’d like each return to have its own return pump. I have two aqua 40 uvs. One will be run as a closed loop utilising one of the drilled holes. The other I was either thinking of running it on the other return or off of a manifold and returning back into the sump.Looking to use one UV steriliser for fish parasites and the other for algea and bacteria - each with different turnover rates. Any suggestions? Should I be plumbing this differently. What size holes should I drill? How should I direct the flow from the return bulkheads? Is there any reason I should drill additional holes for other purposes or additional returns.
I appreciate all the advice,
David
