In terms of flow and leakage:
The leakage takes about 2.5 mins to fill a 5 gallon bucket = 120 gph leakage
The open flow at about 3 feet is 2.5 seconds to fill a 5 gallon bucket = 7200gph surge
Since the final assembly is about 4-5 feet up, I expect to be over 8000gph in actual operation.
You can see the leakage in the first video. It's not small, but it is manageable since the pump filling the surge will be running at 4000 gph (maybe 2000-3000 gph net since it has other flows to feed too: chiller and skimmer).
