Hey all... So I woke up this morning to find the syphon of my overflow ALMOST broken...looks like my make-shift venturi setup, or my pump failed.. it was dark...and i was in a rush to get to work...so i connected some hose to a small pump, plugged it in, and it is ok for the time being...i hope..

BUT with that being said... im looking for one of those aqua-lifter (i think thats what theyre called) pumps preferably, or an idea on how I can get this thing to stay primed.. maybe a decent pump and actual (not cut up plastic and hose:Shhh:) venturi.

if anyone has anything theyd want to sell, or know where Id be able get one, like..ASAP/today.. let me know :thumbup:

...im actually a little worried its going to fail while im at work today.... sigh...

I take it you have a hang-on overflow? I use one of these on my hang-on overflow with no problems.
