    Hey Todd, it's multiple but a different format than most. There is info out there on their LED technology. It's a beautiful light, very happy with it.

    Drain into sump is load, along with a lot of micro bubbles. I can tune it down via ball valves but I like the amount of flow I get with everything wide open. I'm going o pick up some fresh GFO today and ill grab a 200micron sock and see if the helps.

    I built a reverse durso. It was suggested to me by Todd. It works great and it quieted my overflow noise 100%.

    Hmmm it looks like that goes in the drain to sump. After the sock, that area is fine. I think my issue is somewhere in the return... Maybe...
