This is kind of difficult to explain, but I will try and I hope everyone understands what I mean. It seems as if my filters are not sitting deep enough into my aquarium. They splash a lot of water and I am worried it is unsafe. I realize in the picture that the water level is low, but this is a problem even when the tank is filled all the way. I bought two Aqueon QuietFlow 30s for a 42 gallon aquarium that I got from a friend. I also bought an Aqueon deluxe full hood for it. I haven't had the light part on it for a while now because water from the filters gets on it. Is this a hazard?
I really want a light on this tank because I want to have live plants. I tried to tape the hood in a position far enough away from the back of the aquarium that it wouldn't be a problem, but it did not work out. I also tried to reduce the flow of the filters by covering where the water goes in, but that didn't seem to help much, and I want the filters running at full capacity.
Has anyone else ever experienced this issue? What should I do?
