Try plastic window screening - sometimes just a 'S' shape of it stuck in there will settle your flow down. Very cheap at the hardware store for the quantity you'd need. Note that you do not want the aluminum screening and given that you have an aluminum reservoir you also don't want the high-end nearly-unavailable-these-days-anyway brass screening.
Also if your inlet fitting protrudes into the reservoir (or is flush, for that matter) consider modifying the shape of the outlet. I'd at least hit it with a "countersink" bit so the opening flares out a little (don't go crazy or you'll break your fitting).
