I'll give you a city tour in my 210g acrylic tour bus. The tour route begins.... you guessed it.... out my window.

Are you coming along, or is this one by walkie talkie? Just thinking it wouldn't be the same without you there.

Hopefully I can just remove the drum for now. I emailed them. I don't want to put the fish in there until I solve it, as noise stress is just what he needs while he acclimates..... Ai yi yi.

This is the noise. It's twice within the 12 seconds and it's not a subtle volume.

The tank makes zero other sounds, so it's even more pronounced. The top of the tank is completely covered, so not even water noise.

Digging through old pictures.... this is how I controlled my pump during feedings (back in the "day"). I'm surprised I never electrocuted myself.

I turned it off :-( Now there's no switching of the flow. I should take it apart and try again, but I'll do it after the little lion adjusts and gets bigger. The OM would have probably been too much for him.
