Just wondering why my loop is making such a loud water hitting against stuff noise. The only thing in the loop is the pump and a t-line hooked back to the pump. I just wanted to test the t-line out. Any ideas whys it making the loud water noise? And how to get rid of it?



wait.... i think its starting to bleed it self out. the t line is supposed to b highest point? once its been completely bleeded it should be dead silent right? I'm using a eheim 1250 pump. Heres a vid of the loop and the air bubbles running around inside. http://media.putfile.com/Needs-bleeding

just tip the case in all directions, and squeeze some tubes before the blocks. sounds like a huge bubble is in one of your blocks.

my loop doesn't have any blocks its just some tubing connecting the t-line to the pump nothing else

Yes, when it is fully bled it will be very silient. It will be more so when you have blocks in there (causes restriction).

cool. I'll probably just set up the loop later i'm still waiting to cut a hole in my case and add a window using mesh, drill some holes in the bottom of the case for the pump and take out all my hardware. lots of stuff to do over summer :D

also thats a lotta hours at karkand. I prefer wake personally :)
