All,

I'm looking to add a carbon reactor to my reefer 250 sump. However, due to the size constraints of the small sump, I am looking to create a split on my existing pump instead of purchasing a second and attempting to find room in my sump. I know many have done this, but this would be my first DIY plumbing project. Are there any good outlines/links/etc that can step me through what materials and tools I will need to accomplish this task? Thanks!
