I am going to plumb my waterbox 170.4/5 into my fish room and I am worried about the drop for the drains running 10ft away to the 72 inch tideline sump. Ideally I want a ghost or shadow overflow but that would require drilling and removing the existing overflow and capping the bulkheads. Any ideas?
 
Here is my tank.

Just to clarify, what’s your worry on the drop, 10ft is not that far.

I'm wondering thee same thing, my drains drop 5 feet, run horizontally for 15 and then drop another 5 feet with no issues...
