That is correct. If using a permanent pump you would fill/drain from one of the bottom fittings. Fly high make nice bags. Cam.

That's what I figured. Thanks for confirming!
Oh and for my Tsunami turbo ballast pump I do submerge it completely in the water (wires ok to get wet) and not just some of the way, right? I read that to drain the pumps I just screw the pump directly onto the bag but is the vented part on the bottom of the pump ok to get submerged when I fill?

I bought the quick connect fitting and put that on the bottom of my pump when I did do over the side. Then you would use the quick fitting on the bag.

My pump already quick connects on the bag so what's the advantage of putting it on the bottom was opposed to the top? Seems it would be harder to fill not to mention leak water when you remove the pump.

I am talking about when you drain the bag back into the water. You said it screws into the bag.... I must be misunderstanding what you are saying.
Edit: I got it now, you were talking about the heatsink looking portion of the pump ok to get wet....
. It has been one of those days!!

haha yea I was talking about the vent section of the pump but as I watched a few videos, I just toss that whole pump in the water and let it do its thing I believe. The other side of the pump that goes onto the bag when its time to drain just twist locks in with the quick connect. Sorry if I caused any confusion lol
