Sorry, ignore the mess here. I am considering drilling and installing an external overflow in the circle here and putting a sump where my ATO container is. Any issues if my sump is a couple feet away but only a few inches lower? Would be a couple feet of a near horizontal run. Or is it better if I drill in the corner thats closer to the sump?

I don’t think it’ll matter honestly. The distance and height shouldn’t matter to much being that it is right there. IMO I’d say go for it!!
