Flooding is a fear, which has me thinking, wouldn't be too difficult (in theory) to wire up a moisture sensor that would trip out the return pump if got a leak in the mech room. Would leave the CL running for circulation (aeration). Could also have in series a upper limit sensor on the sump, would save me from the wife and the tank from the auto topoff.

See often 600gph gravity for a 1" bulkhead, would that need to be reduced if mounted sideways?
