Hi guys,
So I have a K1 rector, aqualifter on an classic apex and I have had a difficult time getting it working properly. It’s a very basic set up on a 1 minute on per every hour. My issues are as follows...
1. I had the aqualifter on a regular apex plug and even though the plug would turn off, the pump would still somehow be on dumping a large amount of water into the sump. My buddy sugguested that I move the aqualifter to outlet 4.
2. The other issue is even after moving the plug to outlet 4, from time to time, I would have a syphon which again dumps a bunch of water from ato container into the kalk reactor and finally my tank.
I don’t know how to combat this issue although I read in a few places to use a T to break syphon. Not sure exactly where to place it.
Just for info the ato container and sump are approximate on the same level and the aqualifter is slightly above them both. I cannot get the aqua lifter much higher because it’s not powerful enough to pull water from more than 6-12 inches above the waterline for some reason.
Please help.
