Wondering what small filters people use on 5 gallon tanks? Got a Marina S100 something with motor sitting in water. It’s nice and self-primes but gets this annoying vibrating hum unless sitting just so. Cleaned filter yesterday but no luck. So guess looking for a very quiet, small HOB filter as tank in kitchen. Thanks!

Aqua clear (or whatever they’re called) are imo the best HOB filters. I’m a huge fan of air driven sponge filters, but they’re darn noisy

Thanks - I’ll look into. Yeah, got a spare air pump somewhere but pretty open area.
