Hi Damian, i have a big sump under my 270gl tank. I use pond filter sponges and bio ball's, and to pump it back up to the top tank i use 2 ehiem 1060's. Im not sure what size pump your going have to use to run six tank's. If your lfs has it's tank's on a system i would ask them for some tip's. Big pump's don't come cheap :( . Good luck.
