It’s funny that this popped up. I just replumbed my system to add more flow to the sump. I have three holes in my overflow: return, drain and emergency drain. Now it’s a full bean animal with the return coming up over the back of the tank. It’s only been completed for just over a week. I’ve got about 30% more flow going through the sump at this point. My skimmer filled up a bit quicker this past week since the change, but a bit wetter than I normally like. PH bumped up a small amount also. I think due to more turbulence in the “crash” compartment of the sump. Only 0.3 difference. We will see how much difference it makes in the long run.
I would suggest trying it, what could it hurt?
