Would a AquaMedic Turboflotor 1000 Multi be TOO much for a 35-50G?

those lifereefs look really good. so in the case of a power failure they will keep going once the power is restored? so you dont have to worry about overflow or restarting it?

and it says it is up to 700GPH. so does it basically set itself to whatever your return would be? so if the water was coming back to your tank at say 400GPH, the lifereef overflow would roughly match that?

They are a great unit and will restart after a power failure. And they do basically set to what ever flow you put through them.
If you get a pump that has about the same GPH or more, (with head loss)
and put a valve on the output side you can find a balance between the flow and noise level. Most overflows can be noisy when they are near their rated capacity.
I see they they have a silencer option now (kinda looks like Stockman's overflow box version) if noise is issue for you or the powers-that-be .

The Lifereef HOB overflow is the best one out there. Never had a problem with mine and I stopped and started my return pump quite a bit during feeding times. Never failed to restart siphoning at all.
