I am moving to a new case and though about using 2 reservoirs in my new loop. One bay res and one tub res, the only reason i am considering this is so i can see the res from the front and the side. It would also alow me to have a fill port going into the bay res and a drain port coming out of thr tube res.

I just wanted to check that it wont cause with flow issues in my loop or anything like that.

It'll work for sure though flow will be slightly affected. recent evidence appears to be suggesting that flow is not that important anymore anyway. I personally wouldn't consider this worthwhile myself however, as two reservoirs in one loop is obviously redundant but I can see the attraction if you like to see coolant swirling about.
 
I think you may end up loosing a little flow pressure if you use 2 reservoirs in one loop, one of your res's would have to be completely full to maintain the flow pressure.

Not sure wether this would work. I am sure someone will correct me.

I think if it only for aesthetics it would be more hasstle than it was worth.
 
I have 2 reservoirs in my setup flow not been effected, but fill the tube res first makes things a little easyier
 
I assume it would need to go loop -> res -> res -> pump? With the first res being the bay res and have to feed into the tube res at the top?
