How do you fill via a T Line? And how do you block it off so no water gets out?

normally you pull the end plug off, or the cap, or whatever you used to cap it. Generally when your pump is on, its sucking the water through the line, thus pulling the water down, and not pushing it up.

its weird but it wont shoot out, i thought it would too i had it run with the cap off on mine for about 2 hours and i frequently poured water in it so you should be fine. Use a funnel to pour water in it helps alot

yes the pump will NOT shoot water out of the verticle end of a t-tube becuase of bernoulli's principal (the water flow in the horizontal part of the tube causes lower pressure and thus actually sucks the water down in vertical part of the tube). However, that said, you do want to have some kind of a cap to prevent particles and impurities from getting into your system and to keep the water from evaporating from your system.
