There is no re-circulation function. It needs water coming into the intake to pump.
You can cap the intake tube to keep water in at the level desired with the pump off. Removing the cap allows water to flow out of the intake which primes the pump.
Thanks Matt....so if I dump 5 gallons of water with minnows into the XL bait tank before launching, the water will run out the intake of the pump unless I have it capped? That cap is on the inside of the tank at the pump or at the bottom of the intake that goes thru the scupper?? I thought in the new tank, I could set the level on the out take side according to how much water I wanted to keep in the tank itself and this new tank would only pump water in and not allow the water to back drain out of the pump....
I understand it's not a re-circulator but if I don't won't to leave the pump running, I have to cap the intake every time to prevent water from draining back out????
So other than it's size, what's the difference in the old tank and the new XL? What's making it better?
Sorry for all the questions but want to make sure I understand what this tank will do and not do.
