humm kind of hose... i would use a thin walled as you can get...Home depot has a nice varity...pump size....you dont want to fast as it will not chill...
how long... i would a mamy feet as i could get coiled up inside the fridge with the exit going through the wall nearest the freezer part.the slower the flow more it will cool...put frige on coldest as it can get and try to keep door closed at all times...

drill 2 holes in the back of the refer 1 inlet and 1 outlet run the hose in the inlet and coil a bunch of non toxic hose or tubing as much as you can fit about 50-75 feetin the bottom of it.then run the hose back thru the outlet to the sump or system.use a small pump or power head to return water.you don't want to return the water too fast or it will not chill.
