Herbie style drain with a manifold on return?

I had a manifold on one of my systems.
I ended up tearing it down
The detrious would clump where the exits ended up.
I much rather would have all the drain detrious go into a drain spot where it can acumulate for easy shiphon or into a sock.

One of the manifolds was to a gravity fed ats wich worked great but it also made the mesh clump up in detrious.

Main issue will be the detrious for me.


Why not the manifold on a better supply pump? That would be my suggestion.
 
Agreed, place the manifold on the return line and have a valve for each outlet so you can adjust flow accordingly. Placing a manifold on your drain is just asking for trouble.
 
i think i typed that up wrong, there will definitely not be a manifold on my drain. It would go on my return that feeds eater back to tank and would also feed 2 other small tanks and a reactor.
