qicheng Posted February 4, 2012 Share Posted February 4, 2012 Hi everyone! I just setup my new tank with a Deltec SC2060, and I'm wondering if the noise due to the vibration from the pump/air bubbles/etc can be reduced further... I can still hear it when I close my cabinet. Hope for some advice, thanks so much! Cheers, QC Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SRC Supporter Harlequinmania Posted February 8, 2012 SRC Supporter Share Posted February 8, 2012 Did you try taking out the pump and wash it ?

qicheng Posted February 12, 2012 Author Share Posted February 12, 2012 Did you try taking out the pump and wash it ? Yup, even brought it back to ReefDepot to check. Everything seems normal about the skimmer. I think it's because it is vibrating and resonating through the sump's glass. I've the same issue with my Eheim 1262 pump too...

SRC Member Ah-lim Posted February 12, 2012 SRC Member Share Posted February 12, 2012 Put a styrofoam below your skimmer? I did that for my Eheim return pump. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
