You must have 7 overflows with 3" drains. I'm thinking about that too for my little 45 gallon tank :lol:

Yes, every bit of it runs through my sump (no power heads/no closed-loop/no internal overflow)
It is all fed through a modified LifeReef HOB overflow...via a single 1-1/2" drain, no less!

I have two QuietOne 6000 pumps running full-throttle. Each pump is rated for over 1,500 gph, so net of head-loss....
We be-a-Screeeeemin' :lol:
