Hi great paludarium builders!
I’m located i Norway and I’m really struggeling with finding a pump that is small enough for my mini waterfalls. The ones I have aquired are way too powerfull. The modifications I’ve done messed it up, now the flow is very «airy». I’ve seen mini usb pumps on Ali express and such, but they are much more expensive that the «heavy» ones at my «local» Norwegian webshops. Any tips og tricks would be much appreciated.

How much are the pumps for you? Ali and local.
What height is your waterfall? 🙂
Try using one of the powerful ones and just put a piece of cloth over the output. Hopefully it dampens the flow of water enough to be useful.
Perhaps try one of the pumps used for pet water fountains? They’re not particularly powerful and they’re relatively easy to clean
overflow pool would be a good option o you can try using an adapter nozzle to increase the diameter of the tube to slow the flow of water. a smaller pump is going to be your best option
