Thanks bro Soon... and your drawing real pro bro Atlantis :bow::bow::bow:

No wonder taken so long... wow what an interesting flow concept u got there... underneath water chamber... sounds quite "dungeon" to me... hehe. But you do need 2 more pumps in the tank to push the water upwards... maybe on the left and right bottom corner blowing diagonally upwards... but gonna look very ugly, unless you hide the pumps.

Remember... when it comes to water flow... do not leave any dead spots in the tank, coz dead spots can easily develop into disaster zones... if you see a lot of deritrus settle at one place... that's a dead zone.

It's very challenging... I have not settle mine yet... still waiting for the $$$.
