I just can't figure this thing out!!!!!

My tank is a 210 gallon All Glass Aquarium, with ' Mega Flow '
overflows and I don't understand why this thing has four pipes coming down, and the sump has two openings... So ... where do I connect the other two???????????????

The two bigger holes are the drains to the two holes on the sump. The two smaller ones are for the returns from the return pump!

o.k

I got it figured out, after I went to the LFS , and the guy drew me a picture.

I didn't know I had to 'T' it , and combine the two into one.

I't's bad enough that we have to learn chemestry all over again, but to know plumbing to? This is insane.

Oh it gets better as you go, you've gotta to relearn math, become a contortionist, ear training (you'll become really keen to the sound of dripping water, floods)
