Yes....This should be more effective in preventing possible settlement in the area since the bottom drains are so deep.. Likewise for the surface skimmers where I could locate the lift-tubes right at the prefilter section.

Hi Dick: I agree about the midwater, I will have them. (I was so pale when I was in Puyallup, WA. Now, I am nicely tanned and no longer pink. :lol: )

I plan to have two surface skimmers near the water inlet(one on each side) to handle possible foam problems.....just in case. If they are not needed, I can always close them off.
