Do I need to remake the drain pipe or is it ok the way it is? there is really no way to control the flow as the setup is now.

WELCOME TO R2R friend....

Here’s an older pic of my 55, and a narrow stand...
I used the following to fit the limited space;
Overflow - Eshopps PF300
Sump - Eshopps 3rd generation RS-75 (limited under tank space)
Skimmer - Octo Classic CLSC-110SS 5" compact with AQ1000s pump
Controller - APEX Classic with EB8, Temp and Lab grade PH probe
ATO Tank -
ATO - Neptune ATK with OS-1-M Optical level sensors and magnetic mount
Sump high water sensor - Neptune OS-1 Opticl Sensor tied in to Apex
Return Pump - Danner Supreme Aqua Mag Model 7

Hi

 

[P-Dub]

WELCOME!!!!
Good start there. Make a plan and lay it out. Take your time and do A LOT of research here. Once you have a concrete plan, run it by us on this forum. Start a build thread. Take your time. Take your time and, one last thing, take your time.
The overflow should be fine and I never really saw any benefit to adjusting the drain flow. Your flow is generally best controlled at the return pump.
