okay so tank is up and running, but my over flow basically sounds like a toilet filling. cannot seem to get the overflow box to fill all the way to reduce the water pouring noise. the overflow was already built into this tank when i bought it and the water level had obviously sat higher than it is now in the previous owners set up. its set up sorta like a stand pipe but setup out side of the tank. will attach pictures to follow. my current plan is to install a gate valve onto the pipe from the tank to the sump.

my thoughts is i can reduce the flow to the sump just enough to raise the water level in the tank to fill the overflow box, but do not know if this is a bad idea or not.
