Plumbing help!!!
Below is a picture of my sump plumbing. The left pipe and the third are 1 1/4 PVC that goes into a 1in bulkhead. It comes out as a 1 in. The second from the left is a 3/4 in return. It is teed to feed the third chamber. One ball valve is for the chamber and one is for a 1/2 in nipple to use as a drain for water changes. The last is an open 1 in pipe that will be used as an emergency drain in case anything gets clogged. It will be extended into the third chamber. There is a ehiem 1262 return pump. I have an octopus xs 200. I will have two 4 in filter socks on the two siphon drains. The emergency one will be open. Any questions or suggestions would be appreciated.

I glued the pieces. I have also siliconed in a holder for two 4in filter bags on the two main intake tubes. Any thoughts on these?

Looks good.. keep going.
make sure you support that "return manifold" part so its not just dangling there.
