Hi all, I have a 110gallon stock tank set up on my lanai, but my neighbors below me are complaining of the pump from my filter and how much noise it is causing. I was wondering if you guys could recommend a quiet filter that I could use. Thanks in advance.
Aloha.

Id try to insulate vibrations from the pump, there are rubber pads for this. If you need silent filters, eheim is the best I've ever used for low noise. I have to touch my eheim 2217 to tell if its on

what are you currently using? Rena filters are pretty quiet as well as the aqueon filters.

Ok thanks I will look into that first so I won't have to buy a whole new filter. It's a pond filter from Home Depot. I'm guessing I could get the insulation foam at Home Depot also?
