filter problem need help asap!

I have a 65g tank, its still in cycling! The problem is i have a wet/dry filter and a hangover, it looks like the pump is shooting out water from the filter faster in to the tank than its sucking in water! now the level is rising and looks like water would come out if it keeps on! what should i do! Thanks!

 

take sum water out i dont quite understand but is the tank filling up and about to over flow or the sump or wetdry filter u have under the tank or am i confused

 

you need to restrict the return flow, with a ball valve. Then you can get the return rate the same as the filter.

 

TURN OFF THE RETURN PUMP!...........NOW!

Yea the tank is filling up cuz of the pump! All the water in the filter is going into the tank faster than filter is geting from the tank!

 

Either your overflow box is clogged or your return pump is rated higher than the overflow box. As stated by others, you may need to install a ball valve to control the flow. After the return pump, NOT before it.
