Leak test was a complete success.

The return pump is so noisy. I need to get a mouse pad or a piece of foam under there. That is also 8" of water in there.



This picture shows the water level when the pump is on. You can see that I decided not to drill any siphon break holes into the pipe as the end sits above the water level at all times.



And when the water is off, this is where the water level is at.



So I am having problems with the herbie setup. The emergency drain is currently 1.5" taller than the full siphon drain. The water is gurgling into the emergency drain.





Do I make the emergency drain taller by another 1 inches?

Also, I can hear the water splashing from the weir into the box. Do I need to raise the full siphon drain as well? sphelps help, I forgot what you said when you came over.
