So, our water comes via 50mm pipe on rhs of greenhouse, from the shed. You can just make out some of that pipe in the distance on rhs of water tank. Elbow into gh and we will t off with 50mm pipe running on top side of bathtubs. Standpipe draining to stormie underneath, back towards water tank. We will run piping then to lhs of water tank near garage where sump tank will be located. Then pump back to fishtank in shed. Can see some light in the tunnel!

didn't even twig FF, and me a big catfan and everything. Doh!

OK, more questions:
Can i in fact get this set up with just the one pump? It sits in sump, pumps to top of fishtank. Overflow pipe in fishtank to irrigation pipe to top of gh. Into beds and drain back to sump.

My overflow pipe in fishtank would be in an L shape. Standpipe in the middle with crenallations, pipe over that to required height, elbow and run to edge of fishtank.(I think this elbow would need to be connected to the inner pipe which runs to edge of tank, so thru outer one which has cap on top).Pump running 24/7 forces plenty of air in and forces fish poo to the middle and up and out. Is this making sense or am i contravening some basic laws of physics?
