How did water move through the system with so many in the plumping?

Sent from my SM-G920V using REEF2REEF mobile app
My guess is it's dual overflows and probably the return wasn't turned up very high (so one side was able to keep up with the return). Again, I'm doubtful that this is an adequately maintained tank.

Side note: Not my video, only sharing it for your utter enjoyment and a feeling of revulsion or profound disapproval aroused by something unpleasant or food related (ground beef:p)!

I'm gonna guess that this tank was spotless lol. There couldn't be any decaying matter laying around that's for sure hahaha
