I have been running a 120 gallon reef-ready reef tank for the past 6 years. For all of this time I have been running with the drain kit that can be bought in addition to the tank. I have switched up the plumbing underneath the tank multiple times but it has always been one durso in each overflow tower along with returns.
I am now building a new sump for my tank and since I will be re-plumbing I am going to be switching over to a Herbie style drain in each overflow tower. I doing this so it will hopefully be much quieter than the dursos and safer as well. My main questions is do I install the gate valve right after the bulkhead from the tank or do I install it as close as possible to the sump? I really appreciate the help! Also if you have any other advice, I appreciate it as well!
