Basement sump for 125 gallon display suggestions
After having a display tank for 7 years. I’m finally moving into my own house and will be setting up a basement sump. I don’t have plans for frag tanks or any crazy equipment, Looking to keep things simple.
Equipment will include 125 gallon 6’x18”x22” tank with. 75 gallon sump in the basement directly below the tank. Will have RO, top off and dosing. Do any of you have suggestions on plumbing and pumps. I’m bracing the floor to support the added weight as well.

If sump is directly below, a DC pump will do the trick.
Plumbing, at least 3 lines. 2 for drain one for return.

Just make sure you take the head height flow rate of the pump into account. Every pump should have a graph in the information manual showing the flow rate vs head height.

pretty general statement saying a dc pump will work.
