<> I will let the tank fill almost completely with sea water to increase total system water. The refugium will overflow to the other stock tank which will serve as the sump running around half full to allow room for everything to drain down comfortably in a power failure. <> I am only going to be pushing around 750 GPH thru the main display overflow with Durso standpipe (an amazing device, it quieted my overflow down to almost nothing from insane gurgling due to high flow) and down to the basement. Additional flow in the display tank will be achieved through two closed-loop systems, each circling 1/2 the tank top (I got the design from your web site. great idea no power heads!!!) each loop has four flexible ball and socket return nozzles.
