Upgrade to 6 ballast pumps

Aerator live well pumps absolutely have to be mounted below the waterline in order to work. So at the least, you need a T fitting right on the intake, with the aerator pump mounted to the T. 2nd, Aerator pumps sharing plumbing with a reversible impeller pump, usually does not work well.

What would be the difference from 2, two way pumps (for the 6 pump system) and one two way and one Aerator style operating off of one inlet ? Flow rates?

We have experienced that a reversible impeller pump will draw through the aerator pump, pulling water from which ever sac/tank its supplying.
