I bought my cpr-50 from MarineDepot and they recommended using an aqualifter pump. So I bought an aqualifter pump, think it was around $12 or so. Hooked an airline tube to the connector on the top of my cpr overflow box that went to the "in" on the aqulifter pump, and then put the "out" airline tubing into the "intake" end of the overflow box. That way the pump will recreate the siphon if it's ever lost....and get rid of those bubbles that seem to buildup. |
thanks scott i was looking for a pump that worked but never found 1. so the aqulifter works? ill try looking for it.
thanks
