It looks like I need a pump around 500-800gph
I am thinking of getting a Eheim Compact 3000 any other pump recommendations?

They also have a 1100 version which is 1100GPH. You could use that with a valve and adjust your flow as needed.

Yes the rubber does help to silence the rigorous pumping but is also great protection as well.
