Yep one pump and a small manifold would do it just fine, and be a lot
cheaper overall to buy, and run. Surely a couple of PVC pipe fittings
, a decent pump, and some cheap ball valves would do the trick pretty
easy..... and cheaper overall than runing and plumbing up three
separate pumps....More cords in the water as well....
