Where do you stand when taking the measurement? I just replaced my return pump today, went from 400gph to 900gph, there is a bit more noise into my shadow overflow.

I just downloaded a decibel meter and am reading 67 average inside the cabinet and about 52 with it closed standing right in front of the tank. I’m using the SICCE Syncra “Silent” and it’s easily the loudest pump I’ve ever owned.

Inside is 64 for me and I run a danner mag and a fan in there with a psk 300 skimmer with dual pumps for it.

I built the my tanks with sound proofing material in the cabinets. I basically hear nothing.

Yeah, I got a couple of them. I heard that they were a invasive pest but I just don't see it! ;Hilarious

Actually my Foxface has become addicted to any nice corals so I'm letting this one grow out Darwin style, the strongest survive! Guess which "flavor" he doesn't like.;Yuck Next tank, no rabbitfish.;Stop

 

[coralfishreef]

Great looking planted tank

 

[Reefer Reboot]

Sorry for the accidental hijack @tehmadreefer, back to your question, I'm running around 43 decibels.

 

[Screwgunner]

55 db 125 I think the most noise is coming from my skimmer.

 

[Tcook]

120g with dual Durso's. Most of the sound is from the drain in a new frag tank over my sump.

 

[Acros]

IM25 lagoon. 32-33db right next to the tank.

 

[rhostam]

With the cabinet open and mic placed next to sump about 35-40db. I don’t have a skimmer yet.
