1 Pump 2 return Lines

[cww180]

I would like to use one DC return pump but I have already plumbed the tank for two separate return lines to two nozzles. What is the best way to do this, I currently have plumbed via a Y fitting but I don’t think its enough flow and I need to get a bigger single pump or add another identical pump like my existing one.

I’m leaning with going to a DC pump in order to help setting the flow and for feeding mode, and of course they are much quieter.

Any advice/options would be greatly appreciated.

Use a single pump if possible. Trying to tune 2 pumps is gonna be next to impossible, unless it doesn't matter, then go for two.

I use a jebao dcp 10000 on a 125 with split returns..no noise and plenty of flow.

What is the size of the tank and what pump?
Why don't you think you have enough flow?
Flow inside the tank is one thing and the amount of flow through the sump is another.
