Looking for quiet skimmer for my reefer 250.
Tank size 55gal, sump size 11gal.
Wanted to go with Nyos 120, but I'm reading a lot of users are not happy with how it works, and are getting frustrated with setting it up, so I'm looking for other options.
I have a budget of about $500.
 
I like the sca models. sca-301 would probably work for you. I have the sca-302 and its in my bedroom. with air silencer its very quiet
 
I think I'm gonna skip Nyos, as it's $500 here.
I have those two I'm considering

Jebao DCP 5000 at $120
Reef Octopus VarioS -4 $350
 
reviving this thread, I use Omega 150 in my 75 gallon tank, I don’t like the way the setup kept changing the water level. looking at Nyos 120 also
 
Purchased Simplicity 120, but will probably start up tank in a month or two, so not sure is if will be any quiet.
Pretty decent sale that I couldn't pass on :)
