Filter Flow Strong For Betta In 5 Gallon

[leroythebetta]

I just got my 5.5 Top Fin Tank. It came with a Top Fin power filter, It is pretty slow, just too fast for my betta. What can I do to reduce the filter rate, I don't really want to go out and spend $20 more dollars for my $35 tank

You could baffle the flow. This is easy to do with some filter sponge or something.

How do you add filter sponges?

Just get some sponges and put them in front of the output

i can attest to this, it works very well.

also works as a bit of a muffler for the filter as well.

Tried but it stops it like from doing anything

I cut plastic water bottles the size of the filter and use parcel tape to attach it. Works like a charm.
