Adding a fuge Plumbing ideas?

I have a 40B back drilled for overflow on the left and return on the right. I have a 20L sump. I have an old 10G I want to use. The fuge will have to go on the side of the stand. I am looking for ideas on how to plumb this in. Should I T off the drain or return? and add a ball valve. Will this be enough flow to supply the fuge? What about return back to the sump? Will a small ph be enough? Maybe a MJ 900 or 1200. Any ideas? Thanks in advance.
 
I would recommend a t off the return to feed the fuge and just add a smaller powerhead for some flow in it. Also see if you can run a seperate return from your fuge to your display
 
My fuge is between the display and sump. For the feed I've Tee'd into one of the drains and divert part of it's flow through the fuge with a ball valve.

The fuge itself has a small coast to coast overflow which drains back to the sump.
