![]() Hey guys I am currently looking for a pump I can use for return on a 90gal tank with 75 gal sump... Just testing the waters here, seeing what anybody might have before I shell out for a new one...
The quieter the better, obviously. Last edited by Beza; 12-24-2009 at 12:50 AM. |

![]() I have a Poseidon PS3 on my 90 w/ 30 sump. It's one of the quiestest pumps you can buy. It does have drawbacks though (like any other), it is pricey and it adds heat to the system. The PS4 may be a good choice for you since you have a bigger sump.

![]() I run Quiet One 4000 on both my 90 gallons. I like them nice and quite.

![]() Yeah... I'm trying to either find a good used one, or figure out what the best bang for my buck is. Unfortunately I have a beckett-style skimmer, so I think this whole idea of a quiet system may go out the window. Lol.
Anybody have anything in edmonton or alberta that they are looking to get rid of? |

![]() +1 for Poseidon
I have 2 PS4's running on my 75g w/ 30g sump and they pump like a champ, and are silent. As for the heat issues they add...I haven't noticed it on my tank to be honest.

![]() Anyone out there had some good christmas upgrades and need to sell a 1000+ gph pump? Still looking and haven't settled on buying a cheap one from Big Al's yet... Seriously though, nothing out there?
A nice quiet external would be so sweet... |
