Yes. It goes about 3.5 to 4 inches under the surface of the water in the sump.

Is there a simple way for you to get it above the water to do an easy test?

If my overflow is 5X5 inches with a depth of 3 inches is there enough room to do a Stockman?

Is the level in the overflow cycling up and down? If it is, the air hole may be too small. Mine plugged with salt a while ago and it was cycling and gurgling again. When I cleared the air hole, the gurgling disappeared.

I have installed a 90 facing downwards in my similarly sized overflow, fully submerged and the overflow is completely silent. Sounds like we have a similar setup.

Good luck, my tank is in my bedroom and has to be quiet.
