How to manifold?

[pjdiddy]

Building a Redsea E260 soon and thinking of adding a custom manifold, maybe two or three? I did my assignment and did few researches and I'm still confused how it works.

Will be using a Vectra s1 as a return pump. Will it be adequate enough to support a manifold? Lets say I use one for a reactor and one for uv, where does the output goes? What is the valves for? Anyone has an E260 or a Reefer 250 that has them? Thanks in advance and happy reefing.

Output goes back in your sump, valves are for adjusting flow to your individual reactors and such you connect to the manifold. Most reactors need about 200gph, maybe less, most return pumps push out over 1000.
