Vibrations In My Tank!

[James9114]

Hi, i have a 25litre hexagen JAD aquarium with the type of pump where theres a tube that goes down to the bottom of the tank which sucks water to the top through a spraybar into the filter out a hole back into the tank(if any1 has this tank please comment) anyways i think its the pump vibrating on the plastic around it and really starting to get on my nerves, does anyone know any good ideas to stop this and make it become silent if not more quiet, when i first set it up it was silent so its definately the vibration around the pump not the actual pump.

Thanks James

Not being sarcastic, i would remove this and get a internal filter, i cant stand the vibrations those airpumps make, like you they grind me down and down, grrrrr

ha hardly noticed it, thats what i was worried about really taken up space in the tank but anything would do than this vibration(starting to pull hair out now) i was thinking of the fluval 1.

What you think would you say that was powerful enough?

What about this
http/www.allpondsolutions.co.uk/200l-h-aquarium-internal-filter-1862-0.html
only £7.50 and 10x3cm should be enough or you could go for the model up which does 300LPH.

I would onl go for the 200LPH then because siamese fighters dont like to much current because of the long fins.

I havent but plan on ordering one of the 600LPH versions in the next few days. Ive heard great reviews of there external filters so i would think it would be good.

The fluval 1 is good, filters i have now are tetratec 1000, fluval u4 internal all are great, there are smaller versions of everything, however you will want to find one with a control flow as betta splenden hate strong currents...from personal exsperience,
