Yes Myka I know how to calculate head pressure...again, not a rookie....but thanks for that.
I'll detail it for you if that helps you in any way.
My pump would be sitting on the floor of the stand.....approx 3" off the floor, with me so far. Then the pipe turns a 90 then another 90 then runs all the way up the back of the tank, then over the tank into the water....2 more 90's. I guess I should mention that the top off my tank is at eye level.....6 feet up. So actually, I've under calculated my head pressure for just the display alone, each 90 is considered 1 foot of head pressure, so we are looking at 10 feet just for 1 tank. Then theres the prop tank same as above only extra 6 feet to the right.
