Hello,
Just recently installed a Red sea filter roller on a bean animal setup.
It was priming fine in the past, may take 2-3 minutes, pipe was submerged by 1/2" only to help that.
Now that the filter roller is installed, i can't get it to prime automatically but have to play with the valve (opening and closing about 5 times) to help it prime.
The flexible pipe is now submerged by about 2.5" defined by how the roller filter is hanging on the sump.
How are you guys doing that?
My solution would be to lift the roller filter.
I've thought about drilling a hole on the tube right below surface water in the sump to help it prime to reduce the back pressure(I'm fine with some of the water not being filtered completely).
What would be your suggestions?
Thanks!
