It makes a massive difference, especially when it gets bigger. Turn it down a bit at night. The wee turny thing at the back or buy fucking ear plugs

just wondering, if your doing a dwc and the air pump packs in how much hassle is gonny cause ? i mean could it be switched off at nite and then on again in the morning? the oxygen isnt gonna leave the water in a matter of hours so will it treally harm them, it doesnt create problems for a fish tank? the reason i ask is that i tried a 4 pot dwc in my bedroom but the sound of the fuckin air pump was jist too much tae sleep thru.
They drowned, maybe not over night but it wont do em any favours as it can also promote pythium it will also slow growth, gotta keep air pump on 24hrs a day in DWC. Blagdon air pumps are real quiet so quiet infact you can sleep easily in the same room with one of these pumps, been through more air pumps than i care to remember and these are excellent bits of kit.

I was walking across a bridge one day, and I saw a man standing on the edge, about to jump off. So I ran over and said "Stop! Don't do it!" "Why shouldn't I?" he said. "Well, there's so much to live for!" "Like what?" "Well... are you a Religious?" He said yes. I said, "Me too! Are you Christian or Buddhist?" "Christian." "Me too! Are you Catholic or Protestant ? "Protestant." "Me too! Are you Episcopalian or Baptist?" "Baptist" "Wow! Me too! Are you Baptist Church of God or Baptist Church of the Lord?" "Baptist Church of God!" "Me too! Are you original Baptist Church of God, or are you reformed Baptist Church of God?" "Reformed Baptist Church of God!" "Me too! Are you Reformed Baptist Church of God, reformation of 1879, or Reformed Baptist Church of God, reformation of 1915?" He said, "Reformed Baptist Church of God, reformation of 1915!" I said, "Die, you fucking heretic scum", and pushed him off.

Could anyone recommend a really quiet 125mm ext fan? I need something that is whisper quiet or very close to that.
they all make a certain amount o noise, i've never heard of a totally silent one, at the end of the day its a spinning fan so its goin to make noise no matter how good the bearings on it are. mite be better off building a wooden box lined with foam to muffle the sound.
