beaslbbob is correct. If you have enough height you can use another tank or even a rubbermaid above the sump. You can install a bulkhead and over flow back into the sump. It can either be fed by the tank over flow or use a larger return pump and use half of the returns energy to feed the refugium and then let it flow back into sump. The problem with the second system is that you can only put so much through your sump before you get micro bubble issues and extra electrical costs .
