alright - right here u can see the sump tank,and 2 sets of drawers for filtration. the tank will have 2 over flows (one on each side) the water will then collide where u see the white bars X. each set of drawers will have different media and the idea is when the water collides then that will randomly send water down either tube. allowing extra filtration (in theory).
the water will then come out the bottom of the drawers, going threw one more screen of some sort, into the holding tank there @ the front where the pump will be. the orange bars are for creating current. the green is the spray bar. the spray bar will spray out the back, and both sides. both the orange and green will have regulators to control current/spray. need to add another pipe in for when current and or spray are shut off so the water will make it back to the tank and not make a mess :WHOA:.

better pic of the orange and green. and where they come out. you can see the one on the right will come out and push to the right @ the back of the tank, as the one on the left will come out farther and push to the left. like i said this is all a concept in the planning stage - was going to build it this weekend but i don't have time.:nilly:

and the tank i'd like to build. 8 ft x 4 ft x 30". 470ish gallons? might go taller but i think the glass/acrylic would cost to much.
 
it might not make since cookie . might not be cause ur tired lol. just FYI it was (420) here when i wrote it out. i tend to not make much since sometimes when im high. well to others. i make perfect since to myself =)
