Just have the return from the sump to into the display and function as the powerhead.

This is a pretty standard type of setup. Either you have a tank that is drilled for a drain to the bottom tank and a return up to the main tank, or you use an overflow box. Google "CPR overflow" and you'll see what I mean.
sorry, its not a CPR overflow...
look, to have a nice circulation, people use vortech...
but, i was wondering, if a direct the return pump, in some directions, to make the circulation, without a vortech!
and i wanted to see some pictures, if its possible...
tnx!
I think a regular aquarium site would have more examples of that
ok.. but i never saw or heard about something like that...nobody uses this?
It's called a return manifold. You can google it.
yes!something like that!uses the return pump, to make the circulation, without other pumps!

One of my tanks at one point in its life... Return was a Mag7 on a 29G tank. You need a big pump if your going to make a manifold. The return comes in the left side, splits down/forward and also into a spray bar, and also comes in next to the overflow box to put flow in the back corner. Worked really well actually, but I also have 1 powerhead (Koralia2) in the tank and a HOB filter. This picture is several years old.. tank looks nothing like that now.
This is the product..

tnx man!
if you know some pico designs, please post for me!
i'm designs(trying) a pico ATS, and if someone know too, PLEASSEEEEE tell me, i'm all ears!
All the same here but I use ESV additives. I run carbon just b/c I have so much of it leftover but my algae scrubber is really the only filter.Originally Posted by Rumpy Pumpy
