Hey I have a 200 gallon innovative marine and need to buy hard and soft piping. The overflow comes with 1 inch drains. I did have the sump made to have 1 inch connections. The distance between the overflow and sump can be 4 to about 15 feet depending on how i place the sump in the sump room.
Question, one inch pipe fine no matter what? Or should i use 1.5 inch pipe in any case?
Benefits to different size pipe? Drawbacks?
The returns (two) on the tank are 3/4 inch. I had 1 inch connection made on the sump (two). I have two (eheim) return pumps (each probably about 700 to 900 GPH). One will go to a manifold that may run other equipment as well as the tank.
Thanks!
