Ease/diffuse the speed of water flow. Let it percolate, not eject from piping.

is sotong barbels = crossed barbels?
my aro has got crossed barbels for quite a few months already... they say its due to poor water conditions, but i've been maintaining a weekly WC but all no use le...
it can be seen rubbing against the tank... is that causing the barbels to cross?
