throw a pic up,i might be able to help till the water guys showup,@Aqua Man is pretty sharp and i have no doubt he can help you out,his ass probally still asleep hahahhh,but ya id like to see your setup on it,is your control box above or below water line of the res?Yea. It's doing everything it's supposed to but after it's cycle it'll keep filling. I punched holes into the reservoir fill tubing. Wonder if this will work.
im a spoon trying to make it threw a steak hahahaDriving around for a couple hours. Pics would be awesome. I'm about as sharp as a plastic butter knife but will see if I can't help ya once I have some time to sit down and look at the setup
Raise the bucket itself so that the pump can sit on the bottom and yet it's still higher than the water line.But I will need the reservoir pump to be at bottom to pump water up and out into the control bucket. But yea, it only stops once I pull that pump out of water. It's some kind of siphoning effect. I thought with holes in the line it should stop that. Should I punch holes into the drain lines too? Hmm
yeah i was just going to comment on that. Feed from the bottom is usually what i have seen and how I would build it.Yeah its siphoning. I've never seen it done this way, usually the master res is elevated and feeds the control bucket from the bottom of the 55g master out the side, not up and over the top, its normally connected lower down and uses gravity to fill the control with a float valve in the control to stop the flow.
Setup like you have it, it will just keep filling once the pump primes the line.
OK lets get some info here. You have the correct sensors installed in the proper places and connected to the proper controls right? so drain sensor is in the bottom and fill sensor is in the top and they are connected to the proper terminals?But I will need the reservoir pump to be at bottom to pump water up and out into the control bucket. But yea, it only stops once I pull that pump out of water. It's some kind of siphoning effect. I thought with holes in the line it should stop that. Should I punch holes into the drain lines too? Hmm
Does the new line go below the water?Yea lines are connected correctly. Sensors are correct as well.. This was the titan Flo and gro control bucket that was connected to the titan reservoir. I switched up the lines to it to connect to a new big reservoir for other room. It worked just fine before that. Only difference is I haven't installed the grommets yet. The drain attachment on titan Flo reservoir is like a L shaped attachment.
So it's siphoning into the smaller buckets from the large res through the fill line correct?new line doesn't its on top so it splashes when draining.
