Snuffy

So far the eden pump is working well as both chiller and return pump combined. And it is perfectly silent. The reason that I’m combining the chiller and return to use a single pump is to cut down on electrical running costs and potential additional noise from an additional pump.

Hi, i just started a new a new reef tank and wanted to share my experience with noise. I am using a Eden 135 pump. I was told that this was quiet relative to a skimz pump that I bought and returned. Initially, the Eden was quite silent but became noisy after I attached my chiller to it. Reading thru online forums, I realized that DC pumps are a class about AC pumps as far as noise is concerned. Well, too late for me since I already bought my pump. So I started to see how I can improve my setup. By chance, I detached the pump from the 4 silicon black rubber suction cups that were attaching it to my sump floor. The noise immediate went down Very Significantly. The pump is resting on top of the 4 suction cups but not attached. Isolation is the key! Very happy with the quick and simple fix. Hope this may be helpful to others.

Hi I'm interested. When can I collect? Sent from Singapore Reef Club mobile app
