This is my first attempt at a sump so I could use all the help I can get. :-? :-? :-?
I have two 75 gallon tanks that I want to run into one 29 gallon sump. I've read ALOT of posts but still have many questions.
What pump would work best for this application? Or should I get two pumps, one for each 75 gallon and put them both in sump?
If I do the pvc overflow do I keep it 3/4" in the tank then bump up to 1 1/2" after the Tee?
I would rather go to big on the return than to small but would really like to see some pics of your guys overflows installed to get a better understanding.
I think if you guys can help me with these small problems I can get the rest. The plumbing of pipe and drains and float switches and ball valves all makes sense to me I just can't get my mind to fully understand the pvc overflow. I like alot of flow in the tank and will be keeping one emperor 400 on each tank to move water and help with some filtering also.
