Sump Pump suggestions needed

[Aquarist78]

I currently have a 110 gallon tank. It is drilled with dual overflows. I'm currently using an Ecoplus 1267 and I think I got what I paid for. After performing the scheduled maintenance, the pump is getting louder and louder. Does anyone have a suggestion for another submersible pump?

Thanks for any help.

Mag drive pumps are always a reliable go to pump!
I have a mag 9 and a mag 18 running my tank

MAG drives are not very energy friendly and produce alot of heat.

I have been looking for a good energy efficient pump at around 1300-1500GPH myself

From various posts, I've seen recommendations on Sicce, Water Blasters, Tunze, ATB flowmasters, mag, and Laguna. Unfortunately, I've seen no clear leader when it comes to consistent performance and noise levels.

Mags are reliable but power hogs. I have used them for years without a single issue. I have a mag 3 and mag 9.5. The sicce on my skimmer is quieter. From what ive read and heard. Silent and efficient pumps would be Tunze, Sicce or Eheim.

After about an hour of researching, I'm thinking about trying the Eheim 1262. Any thoughts or concerns?
