Hi Guys,
I'm setting up a new 112 gallon and I wanted to make the DIY Overflow design I've seen online and I would like to use it to plumb an overflow to my refugium and then from my refugium to the sump and be pumped back to the display. I'm just not sure that there is enough height difference to accomplish this. This display tank with the stand is 53" tall at the top and the refugium and stand is 44" tall at the top. Would this be enough as long as the pipes stay under the display's waterline? I haven't fully got my mind around this yet and I'm hoping for some input before I start on it all. I've attached a picture of the overflow I hope to accomplish this with.
Thanks.
