SCWD + Priming Pumps
I have a SCWD hooked up to a Mag 5. Everytime I turn off the pump to feed, I have to take the pump out of the water to let it suck some air before it starts pushing water.
Is this a byproduct of the SCWD, or are Mag-Drive pumps not self priming? I bought a Sicce Syncra 2.0 because the Mag 5 is very loud. will I have to prime the Sicce as well?
