Plain and simple. I need to plumb my tank and I want to see as many pictures as possible to get inspiration. I’d appreciate if you help me out.
 
Mine is not the fanciest, but it works well. I converted both of my corner overflows to drains and ran my return over the top. It was all built in a hidden behind a canopy.

First pic is during my plumbing dry fit. 3 drain lines for bean animal, two left go to ski mer chamber, emergency to return section. Two return lines tee off from the main return line, added another tee and valve for future expansion and manifolds. If I had to do it over again, I would use 45s rather than 90s for the turns.

Drains go up to a custom external overflow, and returns go up and through the back wall of the tank.

Second is how it is now, been doing some equipment changes and setting up new heaters so don't mind the wiring
