In your experiment, you do not have continuous water flowing in to the barrel at the end, from what we normally experience it is easy to start siphon but difficult to stop it with water in flowing.
Do update what happen, since most of my trial with straight stand tube result in a failure, hence the modified design that need to be made, either using a breather tube or a funnel on top.
@affnan Yeah, this video was old and I was just getting started. Take a look some of the newer videos and you will see what changes were made. I have no more problems with bell siphons anymore :)

Keep up the good work, we need more people in Aquaponics community to share ideas and let others know how to do it.
