Habitat - Indoor :: Filter is silent now!!

Turtle tank setups and other indoor configurations.

I never bothered anybody with this I just searched around and figured I would get a new impeller and some foam inserts. The sand screwed up the filter and I could get it to be a little less noisy but it would eventually just start rattling again. I searched around, and what others did is buy a new impeller and that fixed it. Then I read about someone using foam inserts for the intake to keep sand out, and now it's as silent if not more silent than when I got it. :D
