What is the motor itself is noisy and brand new. Poor fish.
You are a godsend thank you for this
How often do you water change ?
The part with lubricating is so wrong... Water is the lubricant between the shaft and the impeller. Do not do this. It serves no purpose and the viscosity is wrong so it could even slow your filter down and make your pump work overtime due to the added resistance!
What a great idea. Mine was grinding, took the impeller out and cleaned it up, helped a good bit but still a grinding sound. Pretty confident this is gonna work a treat. Im also Irish so thanks for the tip
thanks. I will apply this to my HOB filter since it has the same mechanism as you canister filter
My 107 is a great filter but man it’s annoying Ps careful with the shafts they’re ceramic and fragile
Wooow 63 décibels 😮. Just for clarification: never grease any gasket with petroleum. In the first place it seems to lubricate, but in the end, it attacks the rubber. It is important to use silicone only (without toxic additives like jbl silicone spray). There are some rubbers that withstand petroleum/vaseline, but for safety and to avoid to shorten its life and end up with a leak, I’d go with silicone only. Just fyi 😊
Another benefit of using Vaseline on rubber seals is that it does not damage the rubber material. Unlike Some Other Petroleum-Based Products That Can Cause Rubber To Deteriorate, Vaseline Does Not Contain Harmful Chemicals That Can Cause Damage.
@@nusretonat3502 vaseline is petroleum: White Petroleum Jelly / Vaseline is a mixture of semi-solid hydrocarbons (C n H 2n + 2 ) that has been completely or nearly decolorized by purification and is obtained from petroleum and high-boiling liquid hydrocarbons. Its appearance is white or almost white and transparent.
@@nusretonat3502 you must use silicon, nothing else.
@@nusretonat3502 Vaseline is white petroleum
@@ArsenicShooter If you don't have silicone grease, use pure vaseline.
Thanks for the lubrication tip - May I add also lube the seal also
thanks and merry xmas from fnq australia all quiet here thanks to you,,
Have you cleaned the media... 😂😂
How do you deal with that low frequency humming noise ? While rattling is fixed isn't this hum annoying ? I'm new here and wonder if all external canisters makes this hum. It's problem to isolate it and it can be heard in a whole room.
Thanks for the video, I’m replacing the ceramic shaft in my fluval 305, it’s a wonderful filter.
Just bought Fluval fx4 and it’s driving me mad . The hum is way too loud
Just to be clear the magnet actually doesn't touch anything. Lubing it doesn't do anything, doesn't hurt but it won't silence a filter. Noise is from a broken shaft or the impeller has become out of balance from wear. Always get a few extra new impeller assemblies and have them on hand.
Will the impeller cause it not to pump? just purchased a used tank and its noisy and wont prime.
Very right my guys. Not only does it not touch anything inside, its actually sorrounded by water in most filters meaning the lube will go straight into the water column
Yeah it’s the impeller plastic hitting the seat, you’re right it is an imbalance. I used to work with big pumps and with enough power it can also wear out the seat it’s in (and it should not touch). But it doesn’t make a lot of damage if replaced fast enough on a canister filter. 😊
What brand filter is that? It looks like a sunsun 304 impeller?
alotime😢
It worked! Thank you!
Thank you for this great Idea. I managed to silence my Canister filter which was becoming too noisy.
Good video but didn't fix mine. Still rattling like crazy.
So this is why my AquaClear must be noisy.
Same. They're great but damn are they noisy
@@Bullboy_Adventures yeah I love that they almost never clog and you just have to squeeze out the sponges every so often. The weird thing is I have one that is so quiet you can't hardly hear it at all, and another one that vibrates like crazy and is loud as hell.
I have a cascade 1000 and it’s loud so I’ll try this out but does anyone else know other ways to quiet down the filter I have?
Did this today worked well thanks
You could rinse your sponges with tap water, but DONT, JUST NEVER rinse your biological media wirh tap water
Super tip about used water for plants!
Fair play you seem to know what your talking about , so much crap on TH-cam regarding cleaning filters , this will help a lot of people newbies
Nice
After 4 years I finally found coconuts
Love the video
Oh my gosh you just saved my sanity. Thank you.
I just subscribed. Loved your demo very clear explanation.
Kanindot sa mga isda ate
I am so in love. 🤗❤️❤️
I have exactly same rattling noise and the impeller stops every time there is powercut. I have to nudge the impeller with something then it works again. Any solution?
I had the exact same issue. Heard the shaft is fragile, so I went ahead and ordered the maintenance kit. Put it back together and it still doesnt work, plus broke the new shaft. With no resistance, it will spin for a few seconds and then stops. I feel the part I missed was lubing the shaft. That is my last option before hanging it up.
Take. Fat dump in your filter should work
thank you for sharing. its more helpful =]
Petroleum based products rot any rubber gaskets/sealing rings and will cause leaks. Use silicone oil from Amazon or eBay.
Multiple manufacturers like Fluval and eheim recommend petrolium jelly for maintinence so can't be that bad.
Another benefit of using Vaseline on rubber seals is that it does not damage the rubber material. Unlike Some Other Petroleum-Based Products That Can Cause Rubber To Deteriorate, Vaseline Does Not Contain Harmful Chemicals That Can Cause Damage.
Watched lots of videos including this one. I’m almost confident to say, people claim their filters “silent” when sound level is 55 dB from 3 inches away. I was torn by this sound level because 55 dB is LOUD to me. I guess my cascade 1000 is just awful by itself and that’s why it’s much cheaper than other canisters.
In my experience the eheim classics are the best for people who are very sensitive to sound. I have the Classic 150 running right next to my bed and I can only hear it when it’s really absolutely silent in the room and I open the stand and put my head close to the filter. I seriously can’t tell if the filter is running or not if I don’t look at the tank and see the plants moving. The classic 250 is not quite as silent, but having it in a enclosed stand and using nothing but filter foam still brought it to a level where I couldn’t hear it if the stand was closed. So if you ever wanna change your filter, I‘d definitely recommend the eheim classics and nothing but filter foam as a filtration media.
This. 55db is incredibly loud. The problem I found is not the sound of some water flowing through it but very unpleasant low humming noise from impeller vibrations. This low FQ is transiting through a cabinet since these frequencies are hard to dampen. I've bought Auquael Ultramax 1500 where people claimed it's dead silent and you have to put your ear on it to see if it's running. I say what ? This thing is loud as well even in a close cabinet. Woder if einhel of fluval vibrates like this as well.
Thank you so much ,a very informative Video ,fixed the problem the filter is so Silent now.
you just need a lighter to fix this problem
@wilmark abaquin how does a lighter fix it? I'm intrigued... :)
@@thefishgals6408 one more way to fix this problem : soak in a gasoline and 🔥🔥🔥
And after.2.days,the noise is back☹☹
Oh no! Did you replace any parts? Sometimes my filter gets a bit noisy but it's just the pipes vibrating off the backboard... Otherwise time for drastic and expensive action :(
Thank you so much very informative video ,fixed the problem can hardly hear it now.
Oh I’ll definitely be having a go at this! Looks great!
ty, i use Propylene glycol or Vegetable glycerin its silence.
Your welcome :)
Mmm good, I will try it on My SunSun HBL 803. Sometime I think there is a little frog inside it :)
A frog! That's a good one 😅 good luck 🍀
Do you know? I tried your tip on a my old and noisy pump and...It works! I reduced noise about 95-98%. Thanks a lot ;)
@@DuilioBiccari happy to help 😁
What is your accent though :)
Irish :) Where are you from?
@@thefishgals6408 I'm from Turkey, I am a nominee of an English teacher and I really like your speech. Impressed :) Thank you by the way.
@@bekovsultan thank you 😁
Great ideas
Thanks :)
I’ve not tried my shrimp on the lollies yet. But looks like they love them. 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
they definatly will love them :)
It seems that its a SunSun canister filter, right? They're notorious for being really noisy. I have a brand new SunSun canister filter that is running for a week and after its third day in operation, its noisy behavior showed up.
Oh no! Only 3 days of silence! That's not good! Hope this helped!
@@thefishgals6408 yeah that saved me! Thank you so much for the tip. Cheers!
Thanks so much for the easy and simple video to eliminate the noise. Someone else had mentioned silicon oil and was wondering where to get it! ;)
Your welcome 😃
Fantastic, I had the same problem and made it worse also. Thanks for the straightforward, to the point video!
