Nice fountain but has a little spillage on the table under it. Also you didn't show us how you made it. (That is why Im here) What did you use for a pump, and can I slow it down just a bit? (AC or DC)

Thank you. Water around is because the container where the fountain is cracked. In principle, it is the same as http://www.instructables.com/id/Water-pump/ mentioning that the instructions. I use a DC motor from a CD-ROM. (Unfortunately it is not designed for operation under water, so it no longer works.) Regulation here is not, but I think it would go through easily implemented (variable) resistance.
