On a Hydro sponge filter does the lift tube need to be fully submerged in order to work effectively?:popcorn:
 
Yep. If it's not some water may flow over the top, but it wont create as much lift as it would fully submersed.

Tnx trying to add a little bio capacity to my sump , then later use this filter to seed the next tank .

in that situation as long as water is flowing out of the top you'll be ok.
