dampen HOb flow

[Sgooosh]

is there a way to dampen an HOB filter's flow? its blowing my anubias and random bits of floaters everywhere

Attach a soap dish under the flow - put stones in the soap dish. (Use a soap dish like you'd find in the shower.)

Or

I use the soap dish, but line the bottom with water polishing membrane, then I put biofilter rock stuff on top of that.

put a round/ cylindrical sponge from an internal power filter, onto the intake of the HOB filter.

if it's an AquaClear HOB filter, you can move the intake tube left or right to reduce or increase the flow. There should be an arrow on the plastic cover.
