Science fiction. The phase shift in alternating current determined the direction of rotation. They simply turned off the light, and if the tube was below the water level, then according to the law of communicating vessels...

Sorry, can you remove this topic from the sea section? I have moved it to Aquarium and Equipment.

In all such pumps, the direction of rotation changes even if you simply unplug and plug the plug back into the socket - the impeller will spin in the opposite direction.

The water leaked not because the filter started spinning in the opposite direction. It doesn't have a clear direction of rotation. Also, swapping the wires in an alternating current is equivalent to plugging the plug into the socket upside down. The water likely leaked because the air intake tube was hanging below the water level, and upon restarting, the filter expelled a stream of water through it. And then the siphon effect occurred! P.S. It's not necessary to duplicate the same question in several sections.

The direction of the impeller's rotation has absolutely no relation to the direction of the water flow, none at all.

I generally put a stopper from a medical dropper on the compressor tube at the exit of the aquarium, and I close the compressor tightly with everything. I cover the stopper.

It's easier to install a check valve on the compressor - 1.5, and you can sleep peacefully.

Gentlemen, what does "the sea - general questions" have to do with this??? Moderator AU!!!
