outside the sump just run a siphon line from the tank to the coil then a drip line with a valve at the end dripping into the sump 1-3 drips a second untill the nitrites are at 0 then 5-7 drips a second from there on out.

 

looking at your pic the water dont flow trough the coiled hose do you know what purpse that hose is for does it catch particals ??

 

the hose is attached to the top part in my hand (the inlet) and just ends at the bottom of the pvc then the water flows up the pvc through the bio balls ( which I don't have in yet) to the out let on the side of the pvc to a drip line to the sump make sence?

 

yea im just wondering about the coylded hose inside

 

What about it? That is how the O2 is taken out of the water I think

 

but water dont run trough them right

 

yes water runs through it from the inlet at the top of the pvc then the hose stops at the bottom of the pvc attached to nothing that is where the water comes out of the hose up through the bio balls to the outlet/ drip lin to the sump? make better sence?
