    You can also as mentioned before, use a "U" tube siphon between the two 10g tanks.

    Yes, that is my return pump which is actually an external pump. I just had the white polyfilter there temp. It's no longer there, just the black pre filter for the return pump.

    All other suggestions will certainly work, I just found this easier and uses less equipment. I only had to set the flow to the fuge once. When I got it where I wanted it, it stays the same for the most part. The set up works great!
