Default overflows

Thanks for the follow up. pretty neat tank of untamed. I'm thinking I'm gonna remove one of my 1'' return lines and use the bulkhead for the emergency drain. I originally set up the drains as dursos but with them being external it seems to make them much noisier. I tried them as Herbies too and they sure are quiet. I think my pump probably flows about 2300gph @ 6ft of head so with fitting losses I'm thinking it's putting out about ...2000ghp? the only way I would have to worry about the 1'' emergency drain not being big enough would be if the other drains completely plugged right?
