See here for ideas.

As for you plan, I'm doing the same (have two drain lines) but one of the lines is tee's to both the sump and ref. With the tee'd and a valves I can control the flow to the fuge, and also bypass if wanted.

One thing that did surprise me was how little flow I'm getting from a 1" horizontal bulkhead (~200gph). Seems would have been better off with a deeper overflow but didn't have the height to make it into the sump.

I'm unable to send pictures (photobucket is blocked at work) but can when I get home.
