I am thinking about the EcoTech Vectra S1, but not really sure I need all of those bells and whistles.

I would like to stay in the DC models, and I would like a feed button. Quieter the better.

Any recommendations for me?

i have the simplicity 1600 DC on my 50 gallon cube and haven't had any issues. i've had it for probably.. a year, maybe a little less. i'm a fan. i haven't cleaned it yet and it's still going strong. seems really quiet, but my tank is in my living room so if i'm in there the tv is probably on. but i can't say i've ever heard my return pump. the icecap gyre i could hear the whirring noise, so i'd vote it to be solidly dead silent

idk why brs/marine depot don't really carry their brand. seems super well made.
