How to decrease the size of particle for fluid simulation(2.9)?

Scroll down to the setting for particle display "size", and set it to a reasonable size of about 0.01. Now they aren't as big. Now, you want the particles to be smaller so they "fit" inside the tube you want to have the simulated fluid flow through. You have to set the resolution much higher to do this. Currently, it appears as if you have the ...
