I have 150 gal dt, 75 gal refugium immediately below and the sump in the basement (actually crawl space under a split level landing - 42" head height). I use a Jecod DCS 9,000 ltr with variable control I have it set on #6 out of 10 levels. It's almost silent. Hopefully, with your calculations, it will be enough.

Given the picture you posted and the description, with 1" pipe, the 45° and 90° elbows, assuming 1 check valve and the ball valves and unions shown, the calculations are pretty close to a maximum flow out the top of 1,070 gallons unless you go with a pressure rated pump.

Great now theres something else I want to add to my apex lol.

Is there any LFS that carry these? I might just do that! There a good bang for the buck too.

I have a working Speed Wave 2640 that I just pulled off a 120 gal. You're welcome to try it for a couple of weeks & if it works, we can work out a trade or something?

Thanks again for letting me test out your Jabeo 12000! I'm hoping this does the trick . You and your wife were super friendly and helpful!
