I'm trying to get my 65 gallon plumbing finished and realized something today. The drain pipe that is in the overflow has holes in it along it's side right down to about 4" from the bottom - is this normal? So if power goes off almost all the water (except for 4") that is in the overflow will drain to the sump-this seems like a lot of volume.
Basically this drain pipe is a piece of pvc -not capped on top with holes in it down its length. Would I be better off with the durso type standpipe? I'm thinking I'd better deal with this now rather than afterwards!
Thanks
