    So now my next question I know the skimmer side is gravity fed with 2 1" lines but as for the return the LFS store suggested a mag 9.5 for return pump but i wouldnt even know where to begin on pluming this thing. Like should it be directly below the overflow or is it okay to set on the side and there is a additional sump that i can buy for it? Just looking for some educational help :)

    What size is your DT? Mag 9.5 pushes a good amount of water.
