Hi all,
I inherited a Red Sea Reefer 250 about two years ago, and during transport, the heavily-modified overflow pipe the original owner had installed broke, so I had been using the emergency drain pipe for this entire time. However, I finally got all the replacement parts for the main overflow pipe and installed them tonight, and I noticed that it is incredibly, ridiculously loud. I tried adjusting the valve on the pipe, the power of my return pump, and raising/lowering the water level, as well as taking off the silencer, but nothing made any difference. How can I quiet it down? Or is it supposed to be this loud? Here is a video of the sound, please let me know if you need pictures of the sump.
