My 3 Best Tips that Fix a NOISY CANISTER FILTER [Plus 3 Bonus Tips!] - THESE WORK!

Here are my 3 best tips that fix a noisy canister aquarium filter. Plus I've included 3 bonus tips at the end of the video. They work. I've used them successfully!

A noisy canister filter can really take the joy out of relaxing in front of your aquarium. Who wants to hear humming, tapping, buzzing, vibration and racket coming from a canister filter? I sure don't! The reason I was originally attracted to canister filters was because they are hidden and because they are quiet. But what do you do when a canister starts making noise? Hums, clicks, taps and rattles. When it gets too loud, too noisy, what do you do? Do you just live with it? Give up and throw the unit away?

These tips have worked for me, even with the less expensive SunSun canister units which I have been using for years. During that time I have never run into a noise issue that I was not able to fix using one or more of the tips covered in this video.

I hope you find this video helpful and will consider, if you haven't already done so, subscribing and hitting that notification bell and sharing the video (and the channel) with friends that could use some help fixing a noisy canister filter or are like me and always want to be learning.

Want to pick up a canister filter? I have listed some recommendations at my Amazon Store. If you use my link to get to my store, even if you go somewhere else on Amazon during that visit, my channel will get a small percentage of whatever you buy. So it's a great way to support the channel and doesn't increase your cost by one cent.
Here is the link to the store: www.amazon.com/shop/benochart

Apart from Amazon, another great way to help the channel is by visiting my Teespring store and picking up some channel merchandise. I offer mugs with pictures of some of my favorite fish that I have owned. There are also hoodies and tees with the channel logo and motto: "Always be Learning!"
