Default overflow drain questions

I am thinking about plumbing a smallish tank into my system<15-20g>, Not looking to really build an overflow for it, just looking for opinions of what would work better.

thinking about something that would look like a herby or bean without the overflow.

bulkhead just under the water line with strainer + gate valve

bulkhead with Elbow at water line with strainer

perhaps a backup elbow 1/4 inch above that.

The sump can handle all the water from the main tank and water to the bottom of the lowest bulkhead from this tank.

sound doable or sound like water on the floor?
