Default Pumps and Piping

Was thinking of putting 2 pumps (5000lph) to merge as 1 pump to pump in water from my sump tank to the main tank as there's many bends from the pump to the main tank outlet. Been looking around in the hardware shop but can't find the exact size fitting.

1. Any bro can advised where can I find all the joints, bends and piping around singapore after 9pm? (i end work at 9pm so bo bian)

2. Can I use silicon to apply on the pipe that has water leaking with fishes in the main tank?

Will try to upload pics asap.

How big is ur tank? is 2x 5000/h too strong? Your pipe need to be big to accommodate the "rushing water"

Need some help for my tank.
Colour ink
Blue-main tank
Red-triangular box
Black-holes for water
Green-poos

looking at the picture, i had installed a WM on the top left hand corner near to us and face it 45 degree down to blow the poo and sediment so that it can be suck in by the filter on the right. But it can't seems to be able to do.

Currently using sunsun jvp-102
Sump tank pump using atman 107 with 5 l joint.
Main tank 5x2.5x2.5.

Any idea what else can I do? Is it the flow of the water current is wrong?

Use teflon tape.
U have to place the wavemaker at the opposite of the intake parallel to the floor.
