So I just got a brand new bak pak 2 protien skimmer and I'm having some trouble with noise. I added a 6 foot long air tube and that hasn't helped. It seems as though the pump is quite but as soon as the smallest amount of air is let in the noise is just unbearable. It has a maxi jet pump. Any suggestions on how to reduce the noise.
