Filter - Water Pump

[BC]

Hi,

Total newbie (BTW whats the story with the mad eejit warning us our
lives are over :) )

Anyway quick question. I have just purchased an aquarium small one to
get me started. It's a Jumwel rekord 60. The pump is not noisy but it
pumps the water above the water line which is kinda noisy. Is this
normal. Can I get a tube and direct the water underwater if I'm making
sense.

TIA..

sounds like you have a power head rather than a waterfall type filter. I dont know
anything about jumwels. Ingrid

It's a Juwel :( Sorry, was a typo! It trickles above the water and what
I was wondering was about putting a tube on it to direct it into the
water to lose the noise

the problem is that noise means turbulence and that means oxygen going into the
water. it is better for the fish. if you do put a tube on it be sure to have an air
stone blowing air into the tank. fish, plants and biobugs all NEED oxygen. will die
without it. Ingrid

Surface disturbance is all ya need as thats where o2 gets in the water and
co2 gets out.
if ya can put the tube under water so it blows water up at the surface you
will still get the oxygenation
or you can try make 'spillway' type bit of plastic, to evenly flow water
onto the surface.
prob confused the hell outta ya there
