Lots of experience... I've built dozens. They've run in the local fish store even.
While visiting Marine World in Marin county, CA I noticed surges happening. I asked an employee about one. They promptly ushered me into the bowels of the place and showed me many of them running continuously. I was mesmerized by the simplicity of them.
Don't do it the way you are planning with a crook. Use a concentric design. Then your exit is out the bottom. You can set the height very easily. The screws are nylon and you just use your fingers on them. Use 3 around the tube at two levels, so you can maintain concentric alignment.

holy cow I love the simplicity and adjustability of this!!! The question now comes in, how loud is it? I am guessing it may be slightly muffled because the way one pipe fits over the other.
Also, I want to know too, does the outlet need to be underwater?
