Default Return line to frag tank

So I just picked up a sweet frag tank yesterday (thanks Kari!) and I am going to plumb it into my sump to make it part of the larger system. (easier for water quality, dosing, heating, water changes etc etc.)

The questions I have is that I am running a rio 32HF return pump into my 90. Now the current 90 I have is a little odd in the drain set up (and I plan on having a new sexy 90G tank bulit through Albert in the spring) so on the return I have to throttle the water flow back to only 1/4 of the power or it will overflow the tank.

Now.. I guess the question, is it feasable for me to run a tee off of the pump return and use it to feed the frag tank (~50G) as well, or should I just bite the bullet and get a small internal pump to return to the frag set up.

Thanks in advance for your help everyone.
