Hello guys,
I have been planning on building an above tank refuge. I have a small container that i plan on putting on top of my book shelf that is next to my tank. I have a small power head that i tested about the same head height and got flow so now i'm wondering how to drill the intake and return. Would one tube being higher or lower then the other make much of a difference? All tubing is 1/2" i'm wondering if i have enough tube left over if i should drill a 3rd hole in case the return one gets clogged for some reason?
Here is a picture, (red lines from tank to refuge.)

EDIT: Maybe this should of went in the diy...
