Hi everyone,

I have installed two new powerheads in a display tank in my office, yet the powerheads are making a lot of noise. I have never come across powerheads this load.

I have installed countless of these, but now I am wondering if there is a way to reduce the noise.
 
What kind are they? Some time if you run them for a while they do get quieter. I've also found a vinegar helps if something is stuck in there.
 
Might not have caught entirely, and are kinda stuck and not in full flow. I stick my finger in the front and try to catch the impellar a bit, slows it enough to grab correctly.
 
What kind do you have? The name brand, need to know what they are before we can help.
