The Right Way To Return???

[Johnson]

I am in the middle of figuring out plumbing returns and over flows and I can't figure out how to set up my returns for a sleek look. I'm building a custom 450 gal. I am running a hammerhead/ barracuda reeflo from my basement. I know the outlet is inch and a half. I was debating on using loc line to return and just splitting it or having multiple larger loc line returns. I am worried about reducing my return lines and loosing head pressure. I have ruffly 17 ft of head pressure

Also alittle more info im going to try to do euro bracing. I've seen lines ran up and over through the bracing. I'm just trying to put it all together so it works out in my head.

Do you have a schematic diagram?

I do not yet that's why I'm trying to figure it out now how I can run them so I can tell my designer where to put the holes if there are any.
