I am working on setting up a 180 gal saltwater tank. I filled the tank tonight and added the salt. I am using a wet/dry filter system. The question I have is in the sump what is the water level suppose to be? Are the bio-balls in water or just have water running over them? I also have a problem with the pump. It seems that the pump is pumping more water than is entering the tank. I have 2 1" siphon tubes that drop into the sump. I even drilled more holes in the plate so I can move more water. When I turn on the pump it starts to overfill my tank. The water leaves the sump goes past a 1" ball valve through the pump past a 1" check valve up the back of the tank where it is tees off to 2 3/4" lines that go into the tank. The 3/4" line have ball valves as well and I now have to close the at lease half way. When I place my hand in front of the flow nozzles there does not seem to be a lot of flow. I am concern that I am not cylcling enough gallons per hour. Any advice or links to more info would be great. Thanks again
