 really neat systems check it out
HI,
I visited that hurricainefilter page , and saw some neat tricks they use to auto- siphon the overflow, very easy, we used a very similar method to auto bail racing sail boats, as the water flow by the suction creates enough pull to actually pull water through a flapper valve, this auto siphon uses down draft suction to pull air out of the tube and keep it free of bubbles if you loose power there's no new bubbles so it stays primed until the pumps start again
pretty neat.
