Equipment Tips

1) How to reduce air pump noise

That is such a good idea. I remember the annoying sound of that pump vibrating.

I've never had a fish tank, but I've thought about it many times....

Excellent tip! It does help muzzle the sound.

Good tip - our pump gets pretty hot though, and I wouldn't want that to be a fire hazard!
