Hey so I have a Red Sea Reefer 525 and it's been running well until the other day when I had a UV installed. After the UV got installed my overflow just isn't filling up to where it should be anymore and it's just making a loud annoying noise occasionally, also I've tried opening and closing the valve and it does nothing. does anyone know how I can fix this? Thank you
Got a new pump for the UV then I connected it to the UV and then lead the water from the UV back into the sump
I am running it from the pump chamber where its next to my return pump and back back into my other sump chamber
Ok, Thank you
i would pump from and to the same chamber, not the return but from the middle chamber. you would then get zero loss from that chamber as it would be recirculating
If you're running a UV in-sump you always want to have it pull from one chamber and deposit in another. Otherwise you're potentially just running a lot of the same water through the UV again.
Um I see your point however if you have the inlet upstream and the outlet down stream It is unlikey imo that you will be doubling up on the pass throughs. I just feed mine from the overflow wier and have it exit near the rt inlet...seems to work well

To each their own, of course. Unless you tie your UV directly into your return pump it behaves like a skimmer, ie: you need x amount of constant turnover to ensure y amount of water passes through the UV.
This is why I suggest one chamber to another for UVs in order to maximize the amount of water that will pass through the UV each cycle.
