Pic of my feed to my sump below...

I've an old wet/dry filter in my shed from my FW days and would like to hook it up as a separate sump... was thinking of using it as a space for a frag rack (that way I can increase flow without disturbing main sump) and possibly a place to site a calc reactor in the future and an ATO (I know, I haven't got one already...!)

I'm just after a bit of advice when it comes to altering the current plumbing... I'm not really happy to mess about with the existing pipework, but will if I have to... is there another way of connecting the two sumps without drilling them or messing with my existing pipework?

I don't think a hob overflow will work on my DT and I don't really want to have anything intruding into it if possible.

Cheers.
 
Pic would help!!
