Ok,
I just bought a sump filter-TERRIFIED to hook it up because of the 'overflow' or 'pondlike' qualities it can produce. Is there any way to make it.....'Goof proof' so I can hook the thing up without this fear of impending doom?
I heard if you drill a small hole in the candy cane tube inlet just below surface of the water. Is that silly?
HELP!! This is a lot of cash I spent on this stinking thing and I want to feel better about using it

. When the water level drops below the hole air will break the siphon and your sump will not over flow.


), try an experiment (out of the tank, of course). Connect a hose to a pump and pull the hose off - it might take a bit, but it should pull off. Then connect a hose to a pump, put a cable tie around the end of the hose, pull the tie snug (you don't have to use all your might - snug will do). Now try to pull the hose off. You'll find that the "snug" is plenty tight enough.
