I've reset the timer to come on a couple hours later and shut off earlier for a total of 6 hours. Gonna give that a few days and see what happens. I still have a few more crates I can use to raise the diffuser as much as another 66" if need be. If the shorter run doesn't help, I'll have to pull it up and add some more height. Dont really have any shallow water that would allow a good set with such steep sides. As long as the check valve does it's job, should be ok.
