I attempted to implement a reverse durso on my sump today, but it didn't do much to improve the noise.
I have attached a picture and video of it (which shows the noise as well)

To be honest, I don't fully even understand the theory behind a reverse durso, so my attempt was pretty much just shooting in the dark.

Does anyone know what's wrong? For one, I'm still getting quite a bit of bubbles coming out. But I'm not convinced that the bubbles are even the cause of the sound.
It just sounds like gushing water. Should I add a few more bends before the water reaches the bottom? Or perhaps lengthen drain pipe so that the durso is deeper into the water?

The main issue is the single drain.
Most of these silencers dont work on everyones application. Its hit and miss, ive used a few different designs.
My lifereef silencer only removed a little bit of the gurgling sound from my single drain.
Can still hear it from the other side of the house.
