Wow, why so aggresive, we are only trying to help.
As for calling me out on my tanks, come to the Falls of the Ohio State Park.
I have a 1200 gallon reef, 1000 gallon FOWLR, 2000 gallon Native Fish, 400 gallon Propagation tank, 4 120 qtanks, a 75 and a 125, and a 9 10 gallon q tank system.
If you are ever in Louisville, KY you can chack out Bluegrass Cichlids. I set up their system, or 22 40 gallon and 5 60 gallon tanks, all on one sump, pump, etc.
You can look at my past threads on my 180 skimerless tank, my 120 skimmerless.
GO to large tank forums and look at the almost 11foot tank thread.
Again, we are only trying to help, no reason to get so defensive and start the name calling and such.
I understand your theroy of the siphon break, but that idea only works for returns not drains. If you have a hole in the top of the u, you will never get a siphon drain to work. As long as the pipe is as high as it is ( to the top of the water) it must work on a siphon drain, just like j tube over flow boxes.
Best of luck! I hope you try this outside first.
