I could use some assistance here please.
Here is what I have so far. I have a 20 gallon tank set up above my sump and am using it as a refugium. I am feeding it with a tee off of my dart return pump with ball valve for control. This is a 3/4" line. The tank has a center overflow with bulkhead in the middle. From the back of the bulkhead I have installed a 3/4 90 el to a tee with a 3/4 pipe from one part of the tee with a 3/4 cap and hole drilled in the cap for air. The other end of the tee travels to my sump to discharge the water. My problem is this. If my discharge tube is submerged in the water of my sump the water will not drain from the overflow of the refugium. It is not a really big deal but kinda of noisy. Am I doing something wrong?
