Nano tank pump suggestions

[monkeyCmonkeyDo]

I need a return pump/general work horse pump replacement. Its been many years since I've been in the world of sw. I see indo closed up a bit...
anyways, I'm getting back in on the nano side. Hoping to one day have a great seed tank for my 250+gal that's been sitting empty for a long time. I had to make a new acct on here so ya...

On to the problem. My nano pump I chose is terrible! Rio800+
Too loud

I need something the same size and gph roughly but a lot less noise. Price isn't an obstacle.
thanks all!

DC runner 1.2
mini MJ
mag drive 1.9
ehiem compact
hydor centrifugal
mighty jet
sicce 0.5 pump

all options
the rio800+ pump is 1.7" wide so really compact and I need something similar. I'm gonna run two in a compartment in the back overflow AIO area... One will shoot up to a scrubber on the wall and overflow back in.
