I'm getting easily annoyed by noisy equipment, and my main noise contributor is the mag7 pump on the skimmer.

It's heaven when I turn it off for a while here and there! :)

Can anyone recommend a replacement pump that I might substitute instead that's known to be quiet?

My OceanRunner 2700 (needlewheel) is pretty darned quiet... not quite Eheim-quiet, but better than Mags and Gen-X pumps.

I had a few mag drives and like I stated HAD. I now have a quite one and it's not bad for a cheep pump. But i did have a problem with my first one restarting after a power out.
