Ya I don't know if it great or bad, the water movment is really good, suspends uglies really well, I have the return choked back in order to keep the sand in place, the down side is, if the check valves ever fails i will loose the tank. My sump is drilled 3 inches from the top with a drain line to the house sewer.

I would definately go with more than 1 check valve then.
Even better, run those on a closed loop instead of as part of the sump, then you can't have that problem.
