Currently I am running my overflow with the durso kit that came with the tank.
I am planning on upgrading my sump and I decided to change to a Herbie set up while I do this, however, I have heard that you should try and run your main drain as vertical as possible. I do not have this option as I need to come down from the tank and over into a fish room behind the tank.
If you see in my photo, I have circled where I plan to put the gate valve. The sump is immediately on the other side of the wall.
Will this still work?
Also, will a gate valve or ball valve be better?
Thanks in advance.
