Also the reeflo dart pump isn't that quiet... unless I have a dud. So I will skin the stand as well. Planning to use magnets.

FWIW I was surprised at how loud my reeflo was as well. Different people have different impressions of what loud is, but even with the doors to my cabinet closed I can still hear it humming, and that was after replacing the bearing in it with a much, much more expensive version. I don't think I'll run an external return pump again because of it. You do get used to it after a while though, just sort of fades in to the background.
Piece of advice - order replacement seals now. Yours will eventually start to rust and it sucks knowing that the need replacing (evidenced by the rust and salt creep starting to appear outside of the pump - very disconcerting) while you wait for the new ones to show up in the mail.
