So your saying just keep it all 3/4 " for return? I haven't bought it yet. I've been looking at controllable DC pumps. I've figured I would purchase it after I know how many fittings and what my sump design is going to be. Ill be pushing it up about 8 ft. My overflow max rate is 1500 gph so I thought I would get something bigger and controllable in case I want to run some reactors or a refugium and still be able to slow it down if needed, I have a 55g tank I will be using to build sump and will be having glass cut locally to make dividers, bubble traps etc..

Any recommendations or things I should consider before buying pump?
