1. The drain from the sink and the drain pipe in the upper sump will make a decent "toilet" sound. If you're going to drill, make a Durso! 2. You won't fit within 250. At least a penny and proper lighting for the main aquarium and the planted tank. Plus, at least a little live rock for seeding. And add a bucket of salt...

Hello! I'm glad you decided to return to the sea... Basically, if the height difference is not significant and the width of the overflow is large, it's enough to attach the drain trough only with a notch to avoid the waterfall effect... If the return pump will pump 8-10 volumes per hour, you can do without circulation pumps... just distribute the return water to two or three points... I wish you good luck in your new endeavor...

I will be covering the aquarium from the top in the form of a cabinet. I also saw an "open" option from the imperialists.

Hello! No need to worry about the algae; the stronger the current, the better. The foam is clear, you can add it later. In my experience, the most reliable insurance against jumping is to glue wide (4-5 cm) braces around the entire perimeter at the top of the aquarium, which is actually shown in the photo above.
