could i use a 5000gph pump and draw 3000 gph from a 55 gl barrel filter and 2000 gph from a skimmer if i use a Y fitting connected to both? my thinking was the pump would draw 2500 gph from both but if i use a ball valve on the skimmer draw line to controll the flow i could split it 3k and 2k.
I know normaly you use two pumps but my old pump may have a problem and instead of getting two i was wondering if i could do one this way?
or would i runinto problem?
thoughts please anyone!!
