Gurgling Overflow - Sun Sun Tank

Hello, Guys

I am trying to increase my current USA return pump but the highest level I can get to is about halfway before the overflow starts to gurgle. Any thoughts on how I can stop this from happening? I have a sun sun tank and its a unique setup when it comes to plumping. The outer blue is the overflow, the White pipe is the intake of the overflow, the gray/blue pipe is the return. The return already had that hole build in. Any help would be great as I am getting tired of hearing this sound.

Might be too much flow for the drain type you have, seems to be sucking air.

Tank is looking good though, I like the rocks cape.

Thanks Kurt! I finally had time to redo them. I liked the turnout better last time.

I guess I will just keep the pump halfway .
