hi bro .. i have a more technical explaination why it squit water instead of ###### air. The inlet of the venturi has to be high pressure and the outlet (which u connect to the slimmer) have to be lower pressure, then it will suck air in .. becos when water flow thru the constriction the pressure reduce so it suck air.. if the outlet side is block or got obstruction, the pressure on the outlet side will be higher.. so the easiest way for the water to flow is the place with the least pressure .. which is ur air intake.. so .. try to remove the original air inlet.. after that should not be any problem liao ..

DIY Overflow or Market ones
rockfish replied to veliferium's topic in New to the Marine Aquaria Hobby
i saw a diy overflow pipe at Aquamarin.. should not be too ex .. go check it out .. -
the part about no water change system .. i went there, open up the cabinet... i only see lotsa bioballs, ceramis rings, a filter wool and a weipro 1202.... ladies and gentlemen.. thats the no water change system.. haha.!! forget about the no water change system... but truely .. their tank quality is good. thats why they dare to give life time warranty .. my 4x1.5x1.5 ft is by them... only 6mm fro 4 sides and 10 mm base. been using for 1yr plus .. no problem at all!!

hi Skipper, i have done this to my design.. it works .. it make the start up easier and remove air faster .. just make a hole in the pipe and super glue a "good" air valve to the pipe. when want to start, just suck air thru it.. must use good air valve .. those cheap ones will leak air slowly .. so ending up cannot work again .. and glue properly .. hope it help u ..
-
maybe u can consider using ur cannister as a chemical reactor.. where u can put carbon, phospate remover and other stuff in there .. before it return to ur tank.

Atlas Filtri Deioniser unit for sale
rockfish replied to lightningstrike's topic in Sell off/Pasar Malam Shop
Sigh... Well ppls .. why can't u let others sell their stuff in peace? for example, if i sell a jug of cookies which i ate 3/4 of it .. some one bought the jugs with the cookies in it .. finished it .. then he top up the whole jug to sell again.. does he sell at a price that u sold or lower.. ?? and to other reefer not directly in this but wants to rub some salt into the wound, maybe we should do that to ur thread the next time .. ?? do u like it .. ? And finally to other peacekeepers .. Cheers for upholding peace and justice in SRC! pardon me,... seriously Why can't we reef like wat we used to back in the old days .. ? -
buy one .. !! unless u have the skill to silcon properly .. its not as easy to silicon glass.. if never do properly .. it either leak or break .. so be on the safer side .. buy one .
-
hi bro, i agree with ervine!! i made a few spray injector skimmer already so afr .. i realise that the design is totally different from the usual skimmer.. needle wheel might work for u ..
-
hi jon, okay .. point noted .. i'll never agree to making pipes that are told not glue .. becos i can't test them.. thanks for ur advice... and the second thing .. ur siphon did break ... after u hear the glurping sound .. that is when ur siphon broke.. but wat arosed my curiousity is that .. how it restart itself .. ??
-
hey jonathon, taking a closer look, i realised why on full siphon ur pipe still can work like normal. becos the water level in ur main tank .. balance with the water level in ur surface skimmer tube .. thats why when u off the pump .. the water level still maintain .. therefore, it still works .. if thats the case, i think u better leave it close as it perform the same function .. and as for why there is bubble .. when its fully close .. simple reason .. u did not start the siphon properly.. there is still air trap in the tube.. if u want . check ur joints again .. make sure u seal them properly .. including the ball valve. hope u are happy with my reply. sometimes when things are not used the way they are meant to be ... problems like these will turns up .. and i feel that u shouldn't get angry with me over this .. just relax and enjoy ur reefing.

hi johnathon, if u set it up in this way, it should be correct. when u turn off the pump and wait for the overflow to drain the water until the level.. did u waited for all the water in the surface skimmer tube to be all drain out .. i think.. if ur siphon is fully on(the valve closed) but the water in the tube is not fully drain .. it will still start .. when u on the pump.. bubbles when u open the valve .. , this is a common prob for overflow.. thats why ppls usually used it the reverse way .. so that the bubbles goes into the sump . . and why did the siphone breaks after u open the valve fully again .. ?? i guess the process is a continuation from the time u off and on the pump rite .. maybe when u open the valve .. the siphon has drain the water level in the surface skimmer to be lower than the Tee joint already .. so if u open the valve fully again .. the air will be suck back into the pipe.. cosing the siphone to break .. is it possible to place ur tank and sump the usual way .. ?? i have made almost 10 of these pipes already . and i have never encounter problems like urs . . even bro jc85 is using one of my pipes .. if possible.. try to get a fellow reefer that stay near to u to take a look at ur set up .. maybe can help u solve ur prob .. worst case.. if after all these still have problems .. u can bring it over to my place .. we can try to solve the problems together .. try to reset-up again .. then let me noe if still cannot ..

hi bro, after hearing how u set up the overflow pipe... i roughly have an idea wat goes wrong .. first of all .. can u at least sketch in the pc and post it so that we noe how u set it up .. then, when the pump is switch off, is the water level in the sump same as ur tank .. ?
