Over time water should start to make its way past the disk into the diffuser. The hole at the base of the spiral will allow water in with the bubbles so you can see them travel up the spiral.

Thanks for your reply Turbomkt, its full already, as I filled it by blowing water into it, but the bubbles dont travel up the spiral at all, they just exit from the hole in the bottom.
