Problem with Durso standpipes. It dampens the noise in the tank but noise and bubbles in the sump don't go away. Used to have that setup, changed it to herbie style not too long ago.

is this a bowfront tank? anyway i just bought a tank with the same overflow... i took the durso out and replaced with a herbie... only downside is that my emerg drain is only 3/4".. basically i turned the dursos return into my emerg drain and used the dursos drain as my primary drain.. (1")

i ran my return over the top of the tank... i have a full canopy so you cant see it... if you decide to go this way i can help... it shouldnt be that hard to do even with the water in the tank... so long as its easy to get your hands in the overflow...

edit : well i guess i cant help as you are in bc.. i looked at the second posts city..
