The water comeing down the overflow is very loud. How do I stop it? Should I add a bigger pipe for the intake in the overflow so the water level gets higer in the tank? any other way besides that?

i just dont have the stuff to do it and to be honest dont want to take it all apart to change the pipe. so what shoudl i do? whats filter floss or scrubbies?
Maybe you could try packing the pipe with something to keep it from pouring down and make it more of a drain... the only concern would be blocking the flow too much... ideas... hmmm, lets brainstorm here.
its not the pipe its the water flowing down the side of the overflow about 14" or so. its flowing down the overflow then hitting thewater right at were the pipe is. so the splash sound fromt hat i would liek to stop.
Oh... can you make a slide for the water?? like a piece of plastic sheet or something?? Try to reduce the distance the water's falling... Am i way off base here? It seems like this would be a rather easy fix...
ya that seems like it would work. i just need to stop it from flowing down the side of the overflow. the water is falling about 14" unti it hits the water at the bottom of the over flow. just something to stop it from slashing and making that water sound.
Right on, yeah, can you place some filter floss or foam where the water lands?? That would quiet'n it up a bit for you.
