Consider this for your new setup

Uses a herbie style drain (syphon), with a caflo or coast-to-coast overflow. Surface skimming to the max. phillybean sent this to me

I'm still not sure how the siphon break and herbie are connected?

If the question is are there other ways to avoid siphoning the main tank into the sump then you're stuck with either a very shallow return, multiple siphon break holes, or a check valve.

steve this method makes the overflow dead quiet. Once you've had Herbie, you will never go back!
