Wow. Where is the sump located? I had about 1200gph going through a 16" wide sump and it was WAY too loud in the living room. The crashing water over the baffles could drown out the tv! Besides, running more water through the sump won't increase your filtration capacity. Your skimmer and reactors can only process so much water per hour which is governed by the size of their pumps. The rest of the water will simply flow past and back up to the aquarium.
