suggestions? external pumps

[zap724]

My wife has had it with my current pump, it works great but a bit noisy. I have a Iwaki MD55RLT Water Pump that I bought used, I don't know if its normal for this brand to be loud.

I think its time to get a new one and use my existing as a backup. I have a 115 gal with 65 gal sump and pushing about 1200 gph. Any suggestion on pumps or what are you using on your systems?

Thanks,
Brian

The Reeflo darts are nice pumps, but way more flow then what was being asked for..

Personally I use the Gen-X PC55.. It's quiet..

The snapper is the ticket. and all reeflo are able to be restricted.

Eheim 1262, internal or external, very very quiet, and plenty of flow.
