This is my first time plumbing my tank and I am just about complete with the dry plumbing of it. I have a delima I need your help with please.

I have a 150 gal tank that is 6' long and I have two overflows. In my attempt to reduce the # of pumps in my sump from the first time my tank was setup before I had a leak, I was thinking about using a mag 12 to feed one return and my manifold which will feed my media filters, CA RX, and fuge I was also thinking about plugging my chiller into the manifold or will that be too much or should I leave the chiller on it's dedicated pump? The other return was going to be fed by a Mag 9.5. I am using 1" PVC for my return which is reduced to 3/4" at the bulkhead.

On my last setup I had a 9.5 on each return.

Can you help me with this please?:debi:
