Hi!
I'm currently in the process of getting my new 125g reef going and have been having an issue with getting the siphons to break. I drilled a hole right in the inner corner of the elbow like I have on my other 125 and oddly enough they don't break the siphon... They work perfectly on my other tank... Any thoughts as to why they don't break the siphon? I can clearly see bubbles coming through the return pipe down in the sump where the intake is... Since they don't work, when the power is shut off, the sump fills to roughly 3/4"-1" below the top of the tank... Any input is appreciated! Thanks!
Here's a pic of where the siphon break hole is located. http://i266.photobucket.com/albums/ii264/viper31jas/P9200113.jpg
