Hi everyone,
My first pump that I have purchased for my reef tank is the Quiet 1 One 4000 this pumps about 1010gph. For some reason it is not very quiet. I think that there might be something wrong with it. As far as the actual pump, it is quiet. However, it makes a noise almost like when you put a playing card on the spokes of your bike when you were a kid. It is like a faint ticking that is very annoying. Has anyone had this problem with this pump? Are these generally good pumps or do I have a piece of junk? I thought that I was getting a good pump when I purchased it. Also, if I take it apart, clean it out and reassemble it, it goes away but then come back in a few days.
Thanks.
