I wanted to buy a ghost overflow but they are currently not selling them and will announce when they are selling them again. So I want to get a brs 2400 GPH or 1600gph overflow box that you silicone in the inside of the aquarium and use the ba system The aquaruim that I'm getting is a 210 I am trying to figure about how much flow I will need for a return pump

You want about 1050 gph of actual flow after head loss. I'd suggest getting the biggest overfow regardless though for better surface skimming. Also set the tank up with a herbie and enjoy fully adjustable flow and silence.

Isn't the herbie and the ba pretty much the same only one has three pipes and the herbie has two?
