Re: 10g Catchup +

It won't work. And heres why;
For the return siphon to work the water level in the HOB must be higher than in the tank. So the baffle must be higher than the tank. The baffle top must be somewhere in the overflow height. The overflow must be in the tank, with water flowing in it. So the return needs baffle height, the overflow needs to be as hight the baffle, witch would mean its out of water, out of tank. There for water can't get into tit to feed it.
I hope that makes sense. I ain't good at explaining...

Make it idiot-proof and someone will make a better idiot.

I'll make the whole damn world jealous if given the money to do so.

a)Fix the damn problem
b)live with it
