Best Air Pump for oxygen

I use a tetra whisper ap 300 deep water on my 210. You can hear it a little. It's pretty quiet though for such a big pump. It's rated for up to 300 gallon aquariums. I'm not sure how the rating works though, because at 2 ft deep water you can run 10 air stones, disk, or whatever. At 8 ft you can run 2. I don't know who would have a 30 gallon aquarium that's 8 ft deep. On the smaller tanks we use the smaller whisper pumps and they all seem almost silent.
can u hear powerhead and ima put 2 air disk in the tank so is there a powerhead that has 2 inputs for air tubes and , and so far rena is the best air pump
grab a air tube and start blowing that way theres no motor or any noise. itll just be a pain since ur blowing air in it! lol jk i use fusion and a pad and i can barely hear it.
I got a topfin 8000 which is quiet and powerful as hell, I have it running a 48" diy bubbler in my 150g deep tank, my under gravel filter, and my volcano bubbler in my 55g and the bubbles are hellllaaa strong. I took a T piece and plugged two outlets into one for the 48" so that way I was using all the outlets though. Works great highly recommend it, and has better reviews than rena's, I dont have a pad under mine, and its on a dresser and I cant hear it. and its about $37 cheaper than rena's highest pump
Tetra's biggest one is pretty cheap from fosters and smith, and kicks out quite a bit of bubblies.
Rena has like a 3 star.. Ive had mine running continuosly nonstop for about a month now and still going strong
