Return Plumbing help

I ended up going rigid all the way up, no hose barbs or spa flex. I went 1" from the pump for about 5" to a 1 1/2" T. That T went 1 1/2" to the bulkhead and 3/4" to the fuge. There's a 1 1/2" ball valve immediately after the T to control the water flow to the fuge. Inside the overflow it goes 1 1/2" to another T, then splits to two 3/4" lines that go into the tank.

Sounds like a good set up ....post some pics

Yeah, awesome work on the new fish room/room divider. I would avoid 1.25" pipe because fittings are scarce.

Agree. 1 inch is what I went with

I got the desired elbow-T , John Guest fittings was worthy choice. A good choice for my fish tank setup.
