    Now I got the idea of making bubbles, but still cant imagine how it can be silent. Sprays should be super loud , when hitting water to push it to the bottom... No ?
    Magic is here.

    Hello!

    It is actually very silent, i have now made a lid to put on the top of the scrubber and i have to be close to the aquarium to her some sound. It makes very little sound and the type of sound it makes is not ugly, just some hissing water sound.

    Hello!

    If you are considering to try this, some tips:

    - it is best to use a adjustable pump so it is possible to adjust flow.
    - Make it possible to adjust distance between spraybar and watersurface. For example make it possible to move the scrubber upp/down
    - When making the spraybar make several spraybars with different holes so you can try out the best.
    - Make the scrubber box longer than you think you need, and then cut it to the right length after you have tested out the hints above. If the scrubber is cut to short you will have problems with bubbles escaping to the tank.
