I was thinking of adding an extra emergency drain as I have a 28" semi coast to coast external overflow. Then I could try a Bean Animal drain in the future but with the flow rates I will have, the Herbie should be more than sufficient.

The plan right now is the 2 90° elbows and then a flare but I am gonna try a couple different loc-line set ups. For each different set up, I will drop them as low as possible and do my power outage drill.
