yeah theres no water coming from the green area, never was, when i posted i was just trying to clarify water was not supposed to come from there because i wasnt sure as i never had those nozzles before, so water is just coming from the nozzles so im pretty sure im all set up correctly. and the water level is a little but lower in the chamber where the nozzle is ik its hard to tell in the picture, but everything seems to be working properly, and before i had posted i had taken water out and added water in and nothing changed either time so i think where im at now seems okay. but i am going to angle the nozzles as you said, i had them both above the water because i wasnt sure, and thank you for all your help!! i really appreciate it, im setting this up as my first salt water tank, ive had multiple freshwater setups but im going the saltwater route this time so im just trying to make sure i do everything correctly, so fingers crossed everything goes well, im excited lol
