That's a good idea Dez.

Hustler, you wanted an excuse to replace that return pump anyway didn't you? Why don't you use the skimmer pump for the return, and tee it like Dez describes. Then you could slow down the flow to the display like I suggested awhile back in one of your other threads. You only need about 2000 gph going to your display anyway...use the rest of that 3800 gph for the skimmer.

What do you think Steve? About 1500 gph (after head loss and all that) good for that Beckett skimmer?
