Elevation shouldn't have any impact on the flow rate. Is this really a SLO (Solids Lifting Overflow)?
The only thing that should impact the flow rate is the GPH of the pump putting water into the FT. If it's going in at 50 GPH lets say, and only 5GPH is coming out, where is the rest of the water going? Are you sure it isn't clogged?
Can you post a pic of the setup?
