I wish I could hear your tank  |
Did you mean your Eheim pumps ? I have 2 of them in my tank too, they are dead quiet because I have connected them with vinyl hoses instead of pvc pipes. Even so, when I touch the hoses, I still can feel the strong vibration from them or when I just touch the outside sump, but no noise at all. You can use just a few inches of vinyl hose first then attach it with the pvc pipe, it can help to reduce the humming sounds too.
