My question, I'm using a 29 gal as a sump where does the output water from the skimmer go? Does it just flow back into the baffle with the unskimmed tank water and then spill over into the sponge or carbon baffle or do you route this water directly into the carbon baffle and then pump it back into the tank? Also with the CPR CS90 Overflow box where does the "aqualifter pump connect" do you really need this to keep the siphon? These OverFlows are so $$$.. agggggh Thanks in advance Chuck
