You've got your gate valves wide open?
And your return pump wide open?
I'm trying to have a slower flow in the sump for better skimming. But it's prolly not necessary as my skimmers no slump.

And Myka I thought bout your idea and may give it a go. It's just a pain in the a$$ to work on my tank. The top stands 6' high and its 30" wide. And of course up against a wall
