Would help to know the brand, otherwise we can't be sure how much quieter you need. Reasonable pumps are the Danner MAG line, maybe a 900 or 1200, or a Quiet One 4000 or so....

I am a big fan of the ehiem pumps for the noise. The 1262 is a extremely quiet but only pushes 900gph. I have 2 Mag 1800 running my 180 and they are great pumps just a bit more noisy then the ehiem.

ATB Flowstar 1500 - extremely efficient and as quiet as the eheims but uses less power. About $220.

I switched to a Mag not too long ago, and am very happy with the low noise level.
