A view of the tank installation, the smaller tank is the first flush diverter.  The 5" half round gutters are visible in this view as well as the leaf diverters I made from standard PVC parts.  A newer design leaf diverter is shown here.

The 10,000 gallon fiberglass tank was obtained from L. F. Manufacturing in Giddings, Texas.  There are five outlets on the bottom:  4 two inch spaced at 90 degrees apart and one 4 inch adjacent to the zero degree (lines up with the top inlet) outlet.  There are two 4 inch outlets on the top, one at zero degrees, the other at 180 degrees.  The PVC line on the right is the tank overflow.
