Plumbing remote sump: 90s ok?

[smokinreefer]

Hmmm... no horizontal runs...
I have a roughly 14' horizontal run with maybe 8" of play in height...

Is there another quiet drain set up more suitable for my situation?

And to throw a wrench into the mix, if I have an in-line frag tank inside the stand, should I just feed it from a tee off the main display overflow drain and have one more seperate overflow line, or I suppose I would need an additional 2 drain lines for the frag tank (1 drain and one back up)

The frag tank under your display could just have some water T'off from the return pump and the drain could tie in to the emergency drain to save from adding another line to the sump.

This is quite a substantial project as the run is over 25' or more from the basement to the display. I think you will have a hard time finding a return pump that can do that and still keep a higher gph unless you have a secondary pump inline to the supply boosting it up half way on the line....make sense?

Gotcha on plumbing the frag tank.

I get what you mean on the secondary pump.
Hopefully I can find a good pressure rated pump.

From what I have read, the D.C. Pumps just don't perform well under pressure.

Basically you have one pump going half way then another pump inline pumping it the rest of the way, if you run an external like a dart gold you could get away with one but....a guy on the island has gone through 2 so not sure if those are the gold standard nowadays lol.

I guess you gotta decide who's advice you want to take.
