I have a new tank I am setting up. It is a 110 gallon tank with about a 35 gallon 3 chamber sump. I have no clue as to how I am going to set everything up.

Here is my first idea on how to do it. WARNING NOT DIAL UP FRIENDLY...full size the photo to see it.

I have the following pumps:


Electric SpongeTM Multi-Purpose Pump
Model R106, Part No. 25874A500, 115 volt AC
Maximum flow of 5 GPM at 10' lift (that is 300 GPH)
Air cooled, high-torque, non-submersible motor with overload protection

Mag 24
2400 GPH
I am sure it is a bit less than that

Mag 9.5
950 GPH

Sedra KSP - 7000
700 GPH

Now, on my new setup, which pumps should do what?

I have a closed loop system with 4 flex line flare nozzles x 1/4 inch PVC. The pvc inside the tank bottom has about 4 foot of tubing with 1/32nd holes drilled every 1/2 inch.

Also, I have a custom built Dual Beckett skimmer.


Also, I have an overflow in tank going to sump and need a return pump for the sump.
