The poseiden is definately a quieter pump.
As far as how much heat it will add... it would depend on the water volume of your system.

I had a T4, you could only tell it was on by touching it.

Now that sounds like my kinda pump. I have made my decision.... my thanks to you all.

I will add a couple degrees to a 75G tank...more with smaller tanks obviously.

What about Eheim submersible pumps? Are they quiet too?

I have a 70gal that I'm looking for a new return pump for as well. I figure a submersible pump would be less hassle (dont have to prime), and one less external device to worry about...?

Eheim pumps are great...just pricey.
