Yeah they are pretty noisy. Luckily mine is in an area where noise is not an issue.

Mine was 3' from the TV -lol Now that I think about it, it may have been the MD-100RLT model. Very loud..

Hi Lance greeting from Campbell River, I ran Iwaki both for my ETSS skimmer and return since 2000, never clean them or touched them, maybe I got lucky, Panworld pump is also an Iwaki design apparently. Ken

Great to see you around...even if we come second to a Beagle....hope all is well with you and your family. How is the tank? And reptillians or whatever they are.

All is well, and the tank is in pretty good shape considering the neglect the last while. The wife's bearded dragon is plump and healthy.
