A built-in overflow is the most efficient method of draining aquarium water to sump filtration. If your aquarium does not have built-in overflow, CPR Continuous Siphon Overflows/Prefilters are the best means for getting water from an aquarium to a filter system. CPR Continuous Siphon Overflows are used to transport water from the tank to your sump. Deluxe models include the aqua lifter to help maintain a full siphon.They quietly skim up to six times more water than units with tubes.

Product Questions
The CS50 is rated for a maximum of 300gph of flow, so a pump that will deliver within this range would be necessary. Something like the Sicce 1.5 or 2.0, depending on your head height, would likely be a good option for a return pump.
Have a great day!
