Hello, i recently started building a larger reef tank.
I got a 25g Rimless tank, it came with a sump & stand.
Anyways i got it drilled and added a overflow.
I got the:
New to the saltwater community i know nothing about sumps, but only canister filters. I was wondering what size tubing do i use to take it down to the sump.
(The size below is a kit the brand of overflow offers for 60$, i assume i can get vinyl tubing a lot cheaper so i was wondering what size i grab)

Specifications
Return Hose Diameter - 0.6875" ID / 0.875" OD
Drain Hose Diameter - 1.3125" ID / 1.5" OD


Link to the kit the offer.

Also what size return pump do i grab, im aiming for low 300's GPH. Or a good flow for a mixed reef.
And what size return pump. Sorry for all of the questions i recently got into saltwater.

this is an older thread, but I noticed it hasn't received an answer. Did you get it figured out?

The tubing is difficult to figure out,I have that overflow, I will see if I can find the sizes.
