Grim Posted August 30, 2012 Share Posted August 30, 2012 whats the size of the pipe and how much water are you turning over? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Funkness Posted August 30, 2012 Author Share Posted August 30, 2012 1 inch And roughly 650 gph guesstimate Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grim Posted August 30, 2012 Share Posted August 30, 2012 i would try adding a cut-off valve to fine tune the flow leaving the tank Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
victoly Posted August 30, 2012 Share Posted August 30, 2012 can you post a picture of the current setup? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
offroadodge Posted August 30, 2012 Share Posted August 30, 2012 +1 for Grim, its because you arent putting enough water back into the tank to keep both overflows full. either throttle the returns outta the tank down or get a bigger return pump Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
