Hello,

I have a question regarding a freshwater pump / filter. Six months ago, I installed and purchased a 6' Aussie Aquarium (http://www.aussieaquariums.com/panoramic.html). This came with a multi-function submersible filter (http://www.aussieaquariums.com/partsacc.html - mine didn't come with the wand as in the image). I believe the approximate filter dimensions are: L(12") x W(3") x H(3").

The problem with this pump / filter is the pump (aeration or bubbles) part is way too noisy. I end up having to pinch the air intake hose while at home to stop it from aerating the water. When I leave the house, I remove the pinch from the hose.

So I am looking for a replacement filter / pump that is similar in dimensions, but is very quiet when 'blowing' bubbles into the water. Can anybody recommend a nice quiet pump / filter combination? I'm not sure if purchasing a wand (if it's even available), would do the trick?

Thanks in advance, Owen
