Idyfohu · 06/11/2010, 11:21 PM

I recently purchased a JBJ ATO for my Red Sea Max 130 (34 Gallon) and I have a 5 gallon container with a Rio or MJ1200 return pump (1/4" hose) going back to my sump area (really the back of my tank) and am try to figure out the best way to mount the hose so that it's stationary and immobile, but also staying above the water as to not siphon the water out when the pump turns off.

Thanks in advance for any and all help!
