Sorry TMoney, just now was the first chance I had to take a look at it. I also didn't realize that there have been so many posts in my thread since my last one.
I took the unit apart; didn't notice anything out of place with it. I did have an incredibly difficult time with one of the screws, but that's about it. I reassembled the unit. I powered it on, and didn't hear the noise. I did discover what it was though.
Right now, I have 2 air pumps. The first air pump is too weak to push any air through my bubble wand... so it doesn't get used. The second air pump (has 2 exhausts) is actually too strong for the bubble wand. Since I only need one exhaust, I put a bleeder on one of the tubes going to the bubble wand. The second exhaust used to have a bleeder on a tube also, but the tube went nowhere.
I learned that if I put too much pressure on one of the exhausts, it makes a really loud vibrating noise. If the exhausts are facing to your left, then it's the one closest to me. I block it with my finger and it gets really loud. I block the other one with my finger, and have no problems. I put the bubble wand on the exhaust closest to the wall, and put the "tube to nowhere" on the one closest to me. I think I used to have it bled closed, which could have ruptured something inside that exhaust (though it pushes out equal air). Instead of listening to air being high pitched through that tube, I bled it enough so I don't get the vibration, and wound up putting the tube into the fish tank in one of my decorations. I'm not so sure if I like how it is... I can definitely hear the bubbles since it's just a tube. Not sure if the fish will like it either being in one of their homes. I'll experiment.
