Trying to plumb another tank into my frag tank system.


Debating if I wanna do two returns and two drains or maybe just drain a tank to another tank

What do you guys think?

I personally like draining one tank into another but leaving a way to isolated them if need be.

Having two seperate connections seems safer.
Separate overflows is always better. It lends more control over each system.

yep, thanks guys. After thinking about it. having two seperate drains/returns seemed like a safer bet. One dead pump won't kill two tanks.
