Now the plumbing looks good. Everything seems to be coming along nicely. Don't remember reading it anywhere, but are you also planning on using any power head supplementation ?

The plan is not to have to use any power heads at all. With the closed loop running at 3600 gph and the return pump at 1100 gph the flow will be a constant clockwise rotation or counter clockwise depending on what end of the tank you are looking through.
