One thought, could you locate the sump up any higher? That would help with the head loss.

I really can't wait to see what happens here!

Yea I dont plan that to be the sump either. I plan on getting a 10 Gallon, but I still twinking around with it, Im removing that uv sterilizer it was just there but Im getting rid of it should help with head loss.

You can still enter throw a can and a movie in a 10 gal and you are in. Today is the last day to enter but that would get you in and give you a month to get it wet!!

A broken 10gallon? :(

It's ok I'd rather hold off and try to do things right, this was a rush to try to get in but did not work out so well , next time I'll take my time and get it right.
