turbofreak403 Posted July 28, 2012 Author Share Posted July 28, 2012 ok guys, running into a dilemma. i can not figure out for the life of me how to tune/stabilize this beananimal overflow system. i found out that i needed to drill 1/4 inch hole into main drain to start a siphon. but it still seems like the drain that is only supposed to trickle down is flowing rather quickly. i currently only have the ball valve on the main drain and a gate valve on the pump return. i am running 3/4 pipe with 2 returns and a 680gph return pump. HELP! Quote Link to comment

21093r53 Posted August 1, 2012 Share Posted August 1, 2012 do something different with the loc line looks like two black #####s Quote Link to comment
aquatect Posted August 1, 2012 Share Posted August 1, 2012 This is a really nice idea. I like the way you incorporated the controller into the stand. Will your return be the only flow in the tank or will you have a powerhead on the opposite side as well? Keep updating because this is going to be really cool. I wish I had the space to do something like this. Quote Link to comment
