Is there a way to lessen the flow on an Eclipse 2 hood/filter? I have one on my 20gal tank and the current is so strong that it's digging a hole in the substrate at the opposite end (the outflow is aimed diagonally across the tank into the opposite corner. More filtration is good, but this is a tad over the top!
 
try pantyhose over the output, should slow it down, cut up black ones, will look less obtrusive
Tonight I was grating my teeth over the flesh-colored pantyhose over my sponge filters (keeps fry out of the sponge that leads to the Eclipse hood filter gear).

I never thought to use black pantyhose; what a great idea.
