Down Filter
Posted on Monday, November 15, 2010 in Photography
How can I slow down the current from my Aqua-Tech Power Filter?
Does anyone have any suggestions on how I can slow down the flow of water from my filter? I would like a gentle flow. Something that will make it as still as possible.
Tommy: Do you mean the intake tube that is in the water? Around the barrel shaped strainer?
You've got me thinking.. Could I put pantyhose around the spout that spits the water out? Can anyone think why this would hurt?
Put a sponge or some kind of cloth around the filter intake and tie it with a rubber band or a piece of string. Thats what i do for my betta.
I use the piece of cloth that is on a fish net for the fish i just cut it off put around the intake and hold it toghether with a piece of string.
But remember if it has been washed in soap or detergents don't use it. Yes you could also use panty hose but put it around the stainer instead of the part where the water comes out. it'll slow down current.
