Air Filter

[pete the pleco]

i have my air filter set for use on two air stones ,my tank is 2ft 6 in but i cant seems to quiten the noise coming from actual air pump ?

what i do is i take a face cloth or towel, wrap it around the pump and fasten it with a string - - it keeps the pump from vibrating noisely against the table/floor

Some pumps are louder than others mate. I got a cheap one of ebay and that is practically silent.

I bought an Interpet AV Mini for £10 and it was excellent! Silent and very compact! Sadly I don't use it on my tank so gave it to my dad as he still uses undergravel filtration!
They should be pretty cheap online!

Hope this helps.

I just don't use air pumps on a permanent basis any more. They are all too loud for me. WD
