Hi etgo,

For water and skimmer return Fig 1a. You want to minimise the bends as much as possible to improve water flowSmile

-if i have 3 pipes for return, can i just connect them in series?
You can run them on series connection but I'd advice you to use valves on each return so you can distribute the return evenly or what ever suits your pondWink

rgds,
Jon
