Hey All,

Making my first simple manifold for an RSR 250. I just need 2 outlets for the long term. Looking for some validation that this idea will work. The barb on the right is where the return will connect to. I think this is the same design as some of the waterbox aquariums. I just worry about enough pressure passing through the outlets on the left with the return being a straight shot to the tank. Each barb will be connected to a hose, which will be connected to a ball valve (I only had 1 for the picture.). A Varios 4 will be running this. Would appreciate any guidance.

I would put in a gate or ball valve just in case you need to take a device offline for cleaning or repair. How you currently have it shown it's always going to be on.
 
Do you think there will be any issues with flow on the barbs to the left?
