How to quieten a Bakpak?

I just got my CPR bakpak. It seems a little loud to me. It's a good bit
louder than the Penguin Biowheel that I am going to phase out. Is there
any good way to adjust this so it is quieter?

Thanks,
Clay

Maybe I won't. I was under the impression that they were unnecessary with
enough live rock, but I don't have much of that yet.

sounds like a good enough reason to phase out the bio wheels Smile
