close call to floading 1 year, 9 months ago #106895

So while doing normal maitness on my tank i had to take out one of the buble curtons so when i did this i had to unplug the buble maker cause its so damn loud without a air line hooked in. So when i went to put the buble curton back in i put it in before i turned the pump on then i turned the pump on and saw no air so i unpluged the air line and WATER CAME OUT and it wouldnt stop it just goin and goin so i had to take it all out. So aftrer reining my air pump i now realize the importance of a aqua stop valve. could of had a disaster there god im lucky.

check values are in place to keep water from backing up into the air pump, thus increasing the longevity of the pump.
