plumbing options

[thirty6]

I know you didnt ask but if you're putting in your FR - think about noise :irked: - i had one in my family room and needed to blast TV to hear it - Things to consider - hard pipes and elbow may cause more noise - splashing of the return in the sump - skimmer return splashing in sump - also totally recommend researching "herbie method" to eliminate the overflow crashing sound. Thier is a better method that requires 3 holes in tank....can't remember name..." bean"?? anyone chime in pleaze.....

I believe it's beananimal design

The tank is predrilled, not sure I comfortable drilling another hole in it. I hovels read that method is really quiet too

Joe you have 2 overflows or one? I forget when I was there if it had only one or two sorry.

If it has one you can make one your standpipe and another your emergency standpipe and do returns over the top
