Hi all. I'm getting closer to upgrading my 75 to a 125. Tank has dual overflows, and weirs on top and down low. I'm wondering if this will work, or am I overlooking something?
My plan is: Left side 3/4" return with gate valve, 1" open channel
Right side 3/4" full siphon, 1" dry emergency
I'm thinking this will eliminate stagnant water on either side?
Will straight drains in the overflow work ok, or should I turn down 90s?
Anything else I should be considering? Thanks.
