My Tank Thread
My Aquarium Showcase
I have a 120G Oceanic tank with 4 holes drilled in it. An 1" and a 3/4" bulkhead on each side/weir.
I want to setup a Bean Animal if possible and am wondering if I should put the primary and secondary behind the same weir or if I should have the primary drain on its own and the secondary and emergency standpipes in the other weir.
Below I have a few photos of one option that may help:
primary drain and return
Secondary and emergency drains:
My concerns are that the secondary and primary should be in the same weir so I can tune them properly (or it wont matter) but if they are then I'm loosing out on flow over the other weir because then it would only have the emergency drain.
Anyone have similar plumbing and have found a solution? Please let me know what you did and how you like it.
