    Default Setup help for my new 110 system. How do I run everything?

    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.

    Mag 24 on the skimmer, mag 9 as return. I'm not sure what to use the other pumps for at this point.
