is the 1"(600gph) too much for a 10 gal tank? Can I meter the drain piping? It seems it would be better to slow down the overflow drain than to get an over sized pump and have to throttle it down. Is using two pumps a bad idea, should I use gravity to move the water from the sump tank into the fuge tank? Thanks for the help so far.
