I’m having issues feeding the upper tanks to the proper level. The drains are also filling the bottom tanks from the top when I limit the water at the 3 inch drain pipe. Am I missing checks valves some place? Should I install some valves on the drain lines from the upper tanks to restrict flow in the drain and prevent some back feeding into the lower tanks?

Should I split the upper and lower sections? Maybe two return pumps and a separate drain system. Any help would be appreciated.
