I'm planning to setup a 125 gallon and wanted input on a closed loop design, specifically how many intakes and outputs would be most effective for a tank this size. And where to locate them. I bought the tank used but I'm pretty sure it's an All Glass, it's predrilled with the overflows not in the corners but offset from each side about 8 inches I'd guess.
So I was thinking an intake on each end (back wall, not sides) between the L/R sides and the overflows and then two returns in the middle (back wall) between the overflows. Y off the returns with Locline to give at least 4 nozzles. The only other flow I'm wanting to use is the returns (there's two) from the sump. I'm anticipating only getting a few hundred gph from the sump as it will be plumbed down to the basement.
I'm planning this to be a full reef tank. Thanks for any input.
