Default 2 ft tank pump for OHF

Please assist if you can. I am using a Dolphin P808 with a single tier OHF. I think that the flow rate is too strong for a 2ft tank (more suitable for 3ft). Particularly don’t like the strong outflow and large size.

Can recommend a less powerful and more suitable pump that can fit the Dolphin tubes. Saw the Atman one, but seems that the piping is different. The Atman has a smaller valve.

Thank you.

Dymax pump model Nos PH1800. Ensure that it's comes with a regulator so that u can control the flow rate. C328 uncle told me that new batches does not comes with it but u can ask him to open up the box to confirm.

Also get the followings items :-

1) one pce long plastic tube
2) 2 or 3 pcs of elbow
3) DIY rain bar (the long tube hv balance). Meaning, drill some holes onto the piping.
4) one pce tube end cap for capping the rain bar.

Trust me, is super simple job.
