Carnthetiges Posted May 5, 2021 Share Posted May 5, 2021 Recently upgraded a no-name return pump on my Waterbox cube 15g to a Sicce 0.5. It's rated at 700L/hr up from 500 on my original. At max flow it leaves the middle chamber about 2/3s full and results in a constant trickling noise. I've tried adjusting the flow via the rotating inlet but it makes no difference unless it's fully closed (which is a step down from where i started in terms of flow). Any one else experienced this? Seems like it's either max or min flow and nothing in-between. Quote Link to comment
Jaren45 Posted May 5, 2021 Share Posted May 5, 2021 I know it's not much help right now but pumps almost always slow down once gunked up a little. Or two little fishies makes tiny soft tubing ball valves you could use. Quote Link to comment
Carnthetiges Posted May 5, 2021 Author Share Posted May 5, 2021 Good call on the ball valve. TLF not available locally but think i've found the product it's based on. Quote Link to comment
