I use a MAG 12 on my display and a Quiet One on my frag tank. Both close to same flow at 0' head, but the quiet one drops almost in half at 5', the MAG 12 stays at 1100gph at that height. Most internal pumps will be quiet, be sure to check the flow charts for the height you'll have to pump it to, generally 4 or 5 feet plus a bit for pipe friction.

Exact same motor blocks as the Red Dragon and ATB pumps except with different volutes. They are cheaper to buy than the RD and ATB pumps but a bit more noiser from what I have heard.

I have the Tunze 1073.020 (slightly less powerful than the one you are asking about). Only had running for 6 months but have had no problems. Very quiet.
