What pump for my used remora pro

[lil_O_JJ]

I just recieved my "new to me" remora pro skimmer in the mail today. So after i do my water change i fire it up and dang that mag 3 pump that it came with sure is loud. Now for most this may not be a problem but for me with my tank in the living room and my wife trying to watch TV this becomes a problem... SO can anyone recomend a good affordable quite yet effecient pump to use with this skimmer?

Mj 1200

Ehhh, not the mj1200 for the pro. They come with Mag 3 standard.

I would try another Mag 3. Mine wasnt loud at all!

ehiem 1250 may be worth looking into
they are actually said to be underrated, and by my comparisons (research only, without any actual testing) they are more efficient


edit: then again, that may not work at all.. just a thought.

I've also read someplace else that the ehiem 1250 is more efficient than the mag3 on this skimmer.
