Sound Muffler 4 Months, 3 Weeks ago  
i setup my new marine tank the other day and its a bit too noisy. I shortened the hoses form the over flow which quietened it down a bit but its theres still quite a racket coming from inside the cabinet. Can anyone suggest something I could use to line the inside the cabinet to tone the noise down a bit??

I was thinking something along the lines of styrofoam..

Cheers

You need to clarify whats the noise from, if water try a filter sock or get the water not to drop into sump, if pump them make sure it's not touching the glass or base, I suspend mine a few inchs above base.
You could pad but maybe enough to do the doors. Also try to cover the sump with plastic dip tray to keep noise in sump.

Would felt pads under the pump's feet help?
