Noisy Jebo Filter

[onyx]

Can fish be bothered by a noisy filter? My Jebo R 338 has a built-in trickle filter and is about 3 weeks old. It seems to be getting noisier this past week. I topped up the water level to lessen the splashing noise of the trickler, now the filter is making vibrating noises. I can't find anything loose on the aquarium. Its so loud that I have to turn off the filter at night (and have since learned that this is a no no). Did I do something wrong by filling the water right up to the top of the tank?

I'm having a similar problem... although the noise comes and goes. Does anyone know what to do about it?

Yeah the noise lets see.
Ive got a jebo r3126 tank.
The noise seems to be a vibration from the pump to all the conecting plastic tubes. Move the pump a little bit and it should get rid of the noise.

Yeah, I've found that the noise comes and goes... most of the time if I just leave it alone the noise goes away. My husband thinks it could be air getting stuck in the pump or something similar???
