I would still try to move them up almost tight to the overflow box. With two MP-40s at 25% you would have 40 turn overs not counting your return pump, so your flow is fine. You would really be better off with MP-10's in your tank so you could get a wider fluctuation in flow, MP pumps will only turn down to 20% minimum, even if you were to program in say 10%, the pumps will still run at 20%.
