your assuming that there is a fuge in the sump, personaly I don't think a sump is a place for a fuge as it is for equipment. a fuge should be a seperate tank that is filled by a pump and overflows back to the tank this way Pods are given the best chance for survival and you don't have to worry about how to fit it all togeather and optimal flows.
