Maybe I should have explained a little better on the upsizing of the plumbing....We are trying to get all our flow through the return pump. As Florida Joe stated flow in the DT should be done by other means.....I was just trying to reduce head pressure on the pump.
Here is what I mean for a strainer on the suction side of your return pump.....

Ha Joe... books... read books? That's preposterous!lol Thanks for the input on the sump, I wasn't quite sure yet how I was going to determine the water level and the preventative measure to disallow the sump to overflow. And I may make the fuge slightly larger in the final build, good suggestion!
And Corey I think Shawn answered it best. He suggested to increase the intake and output on the pump to generate more water volume movement.
Thanks for all the input everybody!
