Found this over at wetdryfilter.com - basically the tubing goes into the sump just below the water level you want to maintain. When the water level goes below the end of the tube in the sump then air can enter the tube allowing air to displace the water and therefore drip. When the water level climbs back above the tube a vaccuum is formed helping to slow/stop the drip rate.
Wouldn't it be faster/easier/cheaper if you just put a (1/2" ?) hose on the air inlet of a standard Kent 5 gallon dripper and use the same principle?
