My hns 2 pump is roaring.. well its consider louder then most skimmer. not the bubble but its the pump noise. I wonder is there any quieter skimmer to recommend. prefer a outsump that is suitable for 200 gallons at least.

I am just an average FR (fish reefing) writer. If you like my FRs, please upz my points.

Hi zorden, have you tried switching the pump on and off again? My HNS aquabee pump roars at time also and that's only because it was not properly prime and cannot operate properly. I dun get any skimmate with that. But when it is operating well, it is very silent and produces alot more bubble.

Check the impeller. May be something stuck, mineral deposit or algae growth.
