Linking Tanks

Hello everyone,

I am setting up a new display in my basement. I currently have my frag tank down there and was wondering if anyone had ever plumbed two tanks into one sump. Would it work if I used 2 separate return pumps?

Works quite well with just one return pump and a t off of your return pipe and a ball valve. That's how I did it.

I have one sump downstairs running an upstairs tank (100g) and a downstairs tank, (130g). Also, use just one return pump for both, as well as running several different reactors off of T's. Been doing that for several years now, and never a problem.
