I'm setting up a 180 gallon planted discus tank and I need to design a spray bar for the return. I'm trying to figure out what diameter PVC pipe will work best for a 6ft tank running (2) 1000gph pumps. I'm only going to use one pump at first but will eventually buy a second. Also, I need to decide if I want to drill holes in the PVC or have 4-5 outlets with nozzles. I'm liking the nozzles so I can adjust the angle of the water flow. Any ideas/tips will be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
edit - also a lil side question, Is it best to have a strainer in your overflow drains or do a lot of people just run them open? I found these http://www.aquacave.com/high-capacity-suction-br-screens-black-2602.html they look good and will stop the larger plant matter from clogging the pipes.
