Im upgrading (around tax time) to a 240-300gl range tank..Thinking of going closed loop, but dont have much knolwage of setting one up. I like the idea of 1-2 extenal pumps and hiding the returns in rock work..a bunch of random flow...thoughts or suggestions would be nice

Any pics would be great!!
