Awesome sauce!! This is something I have been considering however I wanted to do it a lil different. And some opinions and thoughts would be much appreciated. My display is a 150 and I want to sit a 75 next to it but I want to waterfall from my display to 75 then to 30 gallon sump. I figured the 75 would give me more water volume and be a nice place to put corals and frags. I don't really see the means of adding a second return pump or extra plumbing if it's not needed.
Thoughts.......

I recommend creating your own thread where you will get more responses.

you would have to run one of your returns into the 75. You can always add a manifold and run it off of the one pump.

I drip them for a few hours to half a day doing 1 drop at a time.

That sounds very stressful.

Its not to bad i use a small air line valve to keep it at a few drops at a time, also keeping the driping container within another will prevent any messes.
