drip system for 300 gallon with 125 sump...

Run a second pump and switch. Nothing wrong with a little redundancy.

Well my reďundancy plan it to drill a 3/4" hole in my basement concrete slab and if power goes out I would have an extra water drain to underground of the house.

I think you've covered the only option. You're going to have to pump it out. Just keep in mind that there will always be the potential for a flood with that configuration.

I guess my only 2 options but can't hurt to ask.. maybe someone might have other thoughts in mind.

Go to autotopoff.com get a float switch put a mag drive 9 into sump hook it float switch. When water reaches level it will turn on pump pumping water to your drain Easy as that. You won't be able to rely on gravity to do the work if you want the drain in the sump.

I guess that's my only option now if I want a drip system.. wish I could of rely on gravity but I guess I can't.

Another possibility is to put a float valve in your sump and use a small pump to pump out the waste water. If you put the pump on a timer you have push-button control of exactly how much water you change. I am on my wife's phone, but I will link a thread on how I do my automatic water changes tonight.

4. Is incoming drip water.
5. Is a drain, set at the required water level, that lets water exit into the floor drain.
