So I have a Rena xp3 canister filter. I was wondering if anyone knew some attachments for the output that would slow the flow into the tank, maybe one that splits it in two or three directions? I lost the little piece that reduces the flow rate, even one of those that someone isnt using would be great.

thanks

You can built a spray bar with multiple directions out of pvc for just a couple bucks.
 
Actually i think i am gonna try to find a replacement for the little piece that came with it originally which let you turn down the flow....better for my plants and discus.
Anyone have it?
 
Yeah I tried the backwards spray bar but its still too much current! It will push the plants out of the flourite that im trying to get a good carpet with.

It is a very bad idea, i had a eheim 2217 spraybar on the back of my 55 gallon tank aimed at the front glass, the sand got moved like crazy, after a day i can see the eggcrate.
