How long can this pump stay on without issues? I currently have it set up for an overflow siphon. For whatever reason the siphon keeps breaking and someone mentioned they used the aqualifter in conjuction with their overflow. I'm mighty tired of the overflow breaking siphon, I can't figure out why.
I've had the pump on overnight and all day thus far. The instruction booklet is pretty lacking, however, it is simple and to the point. How do you use yours and the longest time you've had it going?
 
Mine broke down all the time, got clogged with salt creep and such, I 'd recommend using a powerhead in the sump to keep the draw going. I kept it running 24/7. Don't use rubber line either, if you use it, it gets hard and loses grip on the ends. Really a bad thing to use imo.
