My Aqueon 120 RR tank arrived today. It has two overflow towers. Each tower has a 3/4" and a 1" bulkhead. The tank came with two drain pipes for the 1" holes and two return pipes for the 3/4" holes.
My questions
1) The bulkheads that came with the tank have hose barbs for the plumbing to the sump. Should I use them with short sections of vinyl hose to the PVC over the sump OR should I replace the bulkheads with inside threaded bulkheads, and then use PVC down to the sump with unions?
2) Any recommendations on plumbing ? Should I use both returns and two return pumps? Or one pump up to a T to send water to both returns?
What else am I not seeing or thinking about?
