Default How to stop Sump Drain Gurgle?

How can I get my tanks drain line to the sump to stop gurgling. I can get it quite by really downing the flow but thats no good. Is there a way to route the piping in the overflow to get rid of this noise?

One of the most effective ways to stop the gurgling sound is to build a Durso Stand Pipe. Here is the link http://www.dursostandpipes.com/ You can click on the build your own standpipe tab or if you don't want to build one yourself I believe you can order one through the web site as well.
