I have a 36 gallon bowfront I just set up and have a 15 gallon sump 2 feet under it. I bought a Supreme Classic Mag-Drive 7 (700 gph max). The flow seems just right and the price was right (69.99). But it is just too loud, I am not happy with it. I am willing to pay more (within reason) for a comparable sized pump that is QUIET. Any suggestions? Did I just get a bum pump or do I need to upgrade to a better brand? What do you suggest?
 
Quiet ones and eheim are pretty much silent. Only time I have problems with noise on them are when it's leaning agains the glass in the sump.
