Hello, I'm setting up my reef ready 65 gallon tank with ruby 30 sump again after a couple of years and am interested in diving into the Triton method. The tank that I have came with 1 - 1" drain and 1 - 3/4" return. With my rocks and sand I would assume the volume to be 55 gallons in the display and 25 gallons in the sump for a total of 80 gallons. This would call for a pump that has a flow rate of at least 800 GPH. The information I have read is that the 1" Megaflow drain can only provide 600 GPH. Would this difference be enough to not be able to use the triton method? Does anyone have suggestions on how to increase the flow in the sump without drilling more holes in the tank?
Thank you for reading.
