Ted,

Welcome.

BTW, it is the OVERFLOW that runs along the back of the tank, NOT the sump. You mentioned that twice here............figured it was a ghost in the machine..

Running the sump all along the back is an interesting idea. I did find one example on the internet of a sump in the middle of the back.

The sump should be under the tank or off to the side somewhere............

I have seen the type you mention as well at the LFS. A double drain is also nice.........With 24" of skimming, will do a great job!

Did they have the returns come up through here with the example you saw?


Are you going to DIY? If so, please post steps and pics!
good luck.


Gerry.
