So I'm figuring out how to plumb everything from the sump return pump and ran into a kink. I don't want to have a bunch of pumps in the sump so I'm gonna split off the return with a Y adapter and put a ball valve and a flow meter into one of the lines that will run into the uv sterelizer.
Now should I run another Y adaptor to combine the lines again or should I just stick the outflow line from the uv sterelizer back into the return chamber of the sump.
And the other return line will go through another ball valve to adjust the pump flow rate plus a co2 atomizer (planted tank), a jbj chiller and another flow meter. I want to put the flow meter as close to the return bulkhead as possible so I get the right reading with the head pressure and whatever lines+turns the flow will go through as well.
Is there a certain order al these things should be lined up on the line?
