    Looks interesting...I sure don't like laying on the floor trying to get a siphon going out of my sump which is about 3'' off the floor. Yuckkk!!!

    Yeah, I've always wondered if you could raise the siphon tube high above the tank over something then let it come down.. if you could get the water over the high mark in the tube if that would work. I'm not good with physics. :)
