betta and water current

[AquaNewby182]

Does anyone know any tricks for lessening the water current on an eclipse system 3 for a betta? The filter doesn't provide anyway to lower it.. I put a few fake plants in the tank but it doesn't have much affect..

Thanks

umm well just fill up ur 3g to the top, because my current isn't that big, i think it will be okay if theres a little current in the water where u betta lives

for my 10 gallon, i have an aquaclear mini. i bought an extra piece of sponge that would normally go in the filter and i cut it to fit where the water comes out of it. i wedged it in there and it REALLY cut back the current but still filters nicely. just thought that might help! good luck
