This was very helpful for me. Thanks a lot as it has solved my big problem.

U explained clearly nd very helpful because everyone show many things with out any explanation. thanks

great ideas. good job man.

I'm not gonna say that using a glue stick container or tape is safe for your fish, but some of these ideas are great. I'll definitely try the cloth or make a hole in a different container to make a custom spray bar

Awesome work bro 👍 .. very helpful for me

I will try this idea, this is gonna be helpful. Thanks much🙏

I used your technique it works quite well

You literally saved my betta. Thank you. I didn’t see any other sources mentioning the tricks you mentioned. I tried the cloth one and it decreased the current so so well. I just need to modify a bit (maybe stitch it with a thread and needle into a tube shape, so it doesn’t open up once in water). But amazing. Thank you. P.S: I have a large tank (7 gallon) but since it came with an already-installed filter, I couldn’t change it or control the flow. So these tricks helped a lot.

This is really good. Thank you for this video.

What about air bubbles?.. using any of these methods air bubbles pipe will also start flowing water outside?? I have used small filter fitted inside water taps ..its working with bubbles coming out u can also suggest this

Can I make bubble wall using that kind of pump. I have sobo pump and its too strong for my fish to swim. As of now, I block it a little bit with a flower vase to minimize the speed or flow of the bubbles. Can bubble wall help?

Thanks for the idea brother, I tried your method and reduced the output hole by attaching an old pen, unfortunately I think this causes too much back-pressure which pushes water out through the air intake tube as a side-effect ("made a mess on the table" situation)... So, an alternative I found is, at the end of air-intake-tube, we have a provision for opening it, I pop-opened it, I made a cotton ball and stuffed it into it then closed it; and when turned on, was able to reduce the flow pressure as I preffered...

@gurribuy

2 жыл бұрын

Thank you bro. But, stuffing the air tube with cotton or any other material only reduces the air intake volume. However, the water flow remains the same. You can verify this by putting you hand in front of the filter output nozzle. But, whatever you did works for you then its great.

Thank you. Now my problem is solved.

Going off what I saw on another video, you can also put a bit of filter sponge into the output. I haven't tried this yet as my tank isn't completely set up. My tank is only 19 litres, so the pump I have is too powerful. Would you recommend filter sponge in the output?

@gurribuy

10 ай бұрын

sure, use a coarse sponge. It should help the water flow easily.

Will it help and if yes, can we have this filter outside the tank? Say using two pipes one for bringing in water and other connected to the output with a particle filter (one of those external filters that come with RO) fitted on one of the lines? I have a small tank and have ended up buying a big filter :(

@gurribuy

5 жыл бұрын

if you reduce the speed then the bubbles will not come out of the filter. If you have a lot of fish in one tank then bubbles are necessary but if you only have 4 or 5 fish then bubbles don't matter much but there should be some water movement inside your tank.

This look very useful I'm going to try it thanks man

Ty!

Thank you 🙂🤗🙏🏻

Not sure how I ended up on this video but rather doing all this, its better to buy a hang on filter. Also in case you bought something that doesn't work as described... Return it, no need to make any modifications. keep it simple 🙏. Another thing, based on all the ideas you shared, all you are doing is reducing the output flow. which means intake pressure remains the same and Betta wont be able to swim properly, which will stress betta and will eventually result in death. 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏

If yes, then you don't have to reduce the flow of the filter but if your fish are being thrown away by the filter then you can use these method to reduce the flow.

the main idea is to change filter output into many small output stream. we are not trying to slow down or stop the water flow. we are just trying to change single stream of water into many small stream so that all the small streams are not that powerful. it will not damage your filter.
