I have two 50 gallon poly tanks and want to have them in a tower type system. With one on top of the other kind of like a shelf system. How would you plumb them to go to the sump, with out worrying about them overfilling? Also how would you do the return?

Thanks…

My prop system is similiar. I have the pump going to the top tank. The drain from the top tank going into the middle tank and the drain from the middle tank going to the sump.

I use the top tank as a refugium.

I chose to do it this way to maximize the flow out of the single pump. Works great for me.
