Pump vibration
 

Looking for ideas on material to put under my in-sump skimmer and pump, the vibration noise is unbearable :)
I have minimal height, so was thinking about some rubber underlay, but worried it will break down.
any thoughts?

A piece of old wetsuit... if you have one.

Good idea, but no old wetsuits lying around. I could check some dive shops tho...

take some airline hose. slice it length wise and slide it over the bottom edges of the pumps and skimmer. Use some zip ties to secure if its not tight enough.

Brad - I put grey, poly-style underlay in my sump under my return pump. 2 years and is not showing any signs of breaking down. Got it from Home Depot.

A clean tea towel folded over a few times and placed under will work good for now until you can find something more permanent

I just put a piece of fairly thin styrofoam under mine. I think it was previously a styro fish box lid :razz:

Mouse pad

Right, +1
I have seen mouse pads made of wetsuit material. neoprene

I cut up the sponge from a mag drive pump put it under works great
