With 2 overflows..... If I split to 2 pumps what should the gph be for each pump? Do I just do the math and split the gph between 2 pumps?
Or
If I use one pump and T it, how do I figure in the gph for that pump with a T involved? I know you add 100 gph per foot raised, is there a rule of thuumb with a T?

not sure what you're thinking??? doesn't matter how many overflows you have, 1 pump can return the water and the overflows will 'balance' out themselves.
If you 'T' off the return, it still won't matter...whatever gph goes into the tank , will have to come out of the tank.

more important is how much gph the overflows can handle
