Will I have enough turn around?

[kevantheman35]

Working on plumbing my 60g cube. The sump is around 20g. In your opinion do you think I will have enough turn around using a sicce 3.0 (714gph) as a return while also running a manifold consisting of 3 media reactors? 4.5 foot head height to the tank and a few 90 degree turns. I tried using the calculator but hard to figure this setup out. Here is where I'm at haven't added the manifold.

Off the top of my head - add a foot for every 90, add a foot for every reactor. IMO I'd go with a larger pump, which you can restrict the flow with ball valves. It's also my opinion that you can have multiple outlets for your return and rely less on in tank power heads.
