It's the other way around. How many gallons con 2 1" overflows handle. I have two in my ninty gal acrylic and i pump approx 1200 gal per hour and could probably pump more if my sump was directly under my tank or if i did'nt have ball valves on my overflow lines.

Thanks for the reply, i guess i looked into it too deep. Just like you said, i would like to pump enough to be able to handle their max draining ability.

Greg, the way over flows work is the water you pump into the tank, they will never drain faster than you pump. BTW, I think 1"=600GPH, if I am wrong I am sure someone will post the correct answer.
