Pump vibration damping.
ok I'm having a brain dead moment, normally I think of really weird ideas but...
I have a Eheim 1260 pump that's vibrating on the floor of my sump. Didn't come with suction feet. (bought used) what can I use around the house to help with the vibration??? thanks. |
mousepad, styrofoam
|
careful with the mouse pad because of the glue, and certian foams will leech.. I would just grab a sheet of filter media from your local store and lay it on the bottom of your sump. I did and it works great.
good luck. |
Old used suction cups from dead heaters/powerheads etc. Most hardware & dollar stores carry suction cups too. Coil up some rubber air line tubing? Should be able to rig something up.

Right, you do not want glue dissolving in the sump |
vibration
use neopreen-buy it at rona or home depot-use i/4 " thick
|
I ended up just tying some airline around it on each end of the pump lol. I'll make it look nicer later.
Thanks for the brainstorm! |
