1st tank advice

[RickD]

Hi,

I'm new to here, hoping for a bit of advice.

I've had a couple of fish tanks when I was a lot younger and I'm now looking at buying a new tank for the family to enjoy but feel like a total beginner!

I'm looking at the Fluval Roma 200 LED tank with cabinet. The tank would be going in the lounge, does anyone know how noisy or quiet the filtration system is that is supplied?
TIA for any advice etc.
Regards

​

Welcome.
Modern tech means that filters are all very, very quiet nowadays.
The only real noise will come from any aeration you might set-up.

Hiya I have the Roma 240 and honestly I can't hear it....there's like a low hum but it's incredibly quiet

I have an Aqua one 300 and the filter with that is silent.
Think most are the same now.
