I am acquiring a 57g rimless tank soon and needed some advice on a couple of things I wanted.

I was wondering what is a good return pump that is silent (close to it as possible) that would be good for this size tank. I use to run a mag 9.5 on my 45g cube and it was a tad bit too noisy for my liking.
and maybe one that one break my neck, if I spend too much on this build my fiancé will break my neck.

Another question that I have is the stand that it is coming with .. now inside the stand I can only fit a sump that is 29'' x 11''... due to how its built. and that's pushing it.. I really like the Ruby Trigger systems and was wondering if there was anything else similar to it.

Thanks in advance !
 
Check out the water blaster hy-2000 or hy-3000. I have the the 5000 on my 125 and u can't hear it at all. It's 4 years old and still runs like a champ. If your willing to spend the money the ecotech m1. But that might be to big. There are also some amazing sump company's out there but I think if your trying not to save money either eshopps cube or trigger system I think will be your best bet.
 
I run a jaebo dct 12000 on my 180 and it's perfectly silent. They come in smaller sizes to fit your tank size needs.
 
+1 on the jabeo Dct. I have the 15000 and am running 2 systems on one return pump.
