    sump/overflow hooked up but HELP PLEASE

    well you want the flow of your pump to be as strong or stronger than your overflow. If the flow is stronger you will have to plumb a bleeder pipe with a valve to keep the tanks from overflowing. Is the overflow an actual overflow or is it a u tube?

    sump/overflow hooked up but HELP PLEASE

    fill the sump with as much water as you plan on having in there and to start the siphon you'll need to suck the air out of the overflow. What is the rate on the overflow and the rate on your return pump?

    Im attempting to build my first stand

    this is the stand looking straight at it. the tall section will be for food, medicines, electrical equipment and it will also hide the drains and overflow. Yes i will brace all 4 corners with 4x4's and the stand an tank are 18" deep and on top will be 2x4's running across the 2x6's
