Look like a nice build.

Yea I noticed that you cant use those near the surface for sure. I ended up going with the regular nozzle just below the surface for the upper return and the flow accelerator for the lower. That way the siphon will break basically as soon as the power is turned off with the regular flat nozzle right at the surface pointing downwards. Will post a pic of that when it get it all tuned.
