Equipment Tips

1) How to reduce air pump noise
Any air pump will make some noise, but if you prevent the pump from vibating against a surface the noise will be greatly reduced. For example you can use a cheap kitchen sponge to keep the pump off the table or floor.

    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....

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