Hi,
I have run durso and full siphon. I can’t recall if a durso is loud as it was back in the days of AC pumps (other things were louder).
I have around a 220g display tank and a 1.5” drain pipe (+1.5” E-drain). Equipment is officially 13’ below the tank so gravity is on my side.
I see I should get around 1,500gph out of the Durso. That feels like adequate flow to me (5-7x turnover) and even if I only get 1,000gph it’s probably fine. I don’t think I need to futz with a gate valve and full siphon but just can’t remember how loud the durso was. Anyone running one let me know?
