Guys I have a 450 lite tank with a 150 litre sump what overflow box and return pump will be good enough for this size thanks [emoji3]
 
@ 10x turnover for that size system you are @1150gph
@15x you are @1770gph

Glassholes has an overflow rated @1500gph starting @ $89.00 (Blemished) that would work for you @10x turnover--->Link
 
and return pump will be good enough for this size
..as for a pump, take your pick anything in the range (1150gph -1500gph (MAX)) will work and everyone has his or her personal choice.

Deepwater Pumps
Ecoplus Pump
Ecotech Marine Vectra
Reef Octopus Water Pumps
Reef Octopus RODC Pumps
Waveline Pumps
Reeflo Pumps
Tunze Aquarium Pumps
Eheim Pumps
Dolphin Ampmaster Pumps

Just to name a few above, also you will need to calculate head pressure and if you're running things like UV, upflow reactors, etc. off the return a slightly higher flow would be need to compensate and still maintain your requirements flow wise.
