Overflow Plumbing

[xabo]

Have a 225 gal. w/corner overflows. Came w/1" drains and 3/4" return. Okay to use for SPS tank or should I move up to 1-1/4" drains and 1" returns? Thanks

Keep it the same! Just make you have a solid return pump and some good power heads

Opinions will vary but I'd keep what you have. My tank only has 4x turnover through the sump and 30x with powerheads in the tank. I think flow in the tank is more important than flow through the sump.

Thanks for the replies..............Return pump is a Red Dragon 150W and I have 4 MP60s.
