I think I want a mag 9.5.

I'm new to sumps, but I have a 2 foot tall tank, bottom drilled, 1" drain into the sump, and 3/4" return line. From what I can tell online: I'll want to flow about 10x's the total water volume per hour, so about 700 gph. A 1" drain should be able to handle about 700 gph. And a mag 9.5 with 5' tall return line does around 700+ gph.

Does this sound right to you more experienced folks?
