Can someone who has sump next to tank please post pics how to plumb> Need to place a sump next to tank 125 gallons, I have no access due to stand built underneath . Would have to have sump sitting next to tank, Thanks!

I would say if the sump is lower then the dt it would be plumbed the same way as if it was under the tank

No problems with the sump yet. I got it used for $100.00 so I don’t know how old it is but I’ve had it running 9 months now.

I have the return pump sitting high in the sump just under the water surface far enough not to suck air. If the overflow ever stops it won’t suck all the water out of the sump.

Impossible to balance two pumps...one pumping water to sump while the other is pumping back to the Display. One pump will always slightly out perform the other and the overperforming pump will overflow what it's pumping into
