i noticed you may need a splitter in your line..it connects to the tube that runs from the pump and provides to connections -one to feed the main fountain and one connected to the moai from underneath the fountain where he now stands....this way water runs down like it is now but the moai will be spitting a nice arc of water into the main catch basin.....i wanna see pics when your done!!

remember -the smaller the hole, the better the water pressure to create the arc..if the hole in his mouth is too big, it will just dribble out like a senior citizen moai in the old moai retirement home... start with a 1/16" drill and if the arc overshoots the basin, drill bigger but not more than 1/8".......you can also play around with the placement of the moai too....
