I'll take some close up pics tonight of the overflows and valving. I patched the holes in the bottom and drilled new ones up top.

thats what im thinking.
im thinking of maybe sink drains or diy bulks up high.

1st pic,filter will be there,and 3 tubs on top.
going to use 2x4 under and around the tubs for flex.

2nd is just how the top row will look but the middle one is missing.

3rd and 4th,filter with separator built.

5th,cat enjoying freshly swept concrete :D

In the electrical section of HD they have water tight connector (straight & elbow) in 1/2" & 3/4" (dark gray plastic w/'o'ring).

A little small I know, but for your project they could work.

For this small project and being outside, you could use syphon tubes w/anti-syphon holes in them but you'd have to keep an eye on everything so it doesn't loose syphon or overflow.

If you think your going to make a go of this then just do it right the first time, it'll be cheaper :D.

Is the pump 190g @ 3ft?
