tzahroxi Posted January 9 Share Posted January 9 i have asked my roommate if i could get another tank and they said its fine as long as i find a place to put it and it isnt noisy. he is very sensitive to sound and is worried about the noise output. i tried finding it online but couldnt find anything.

xXInkedPhoenixX Posted January 9 Share Posted January 9 Hi, if it helps, I have the Flex 9 and no it shouldn't be noisy at all. Mine makes a little only because I point the flow above the waterline but you don't have to do this as you can point the flow whatever direction you want. Keep in mind though my tank likely came with a different pump since it's a lot smaller- though I have since replaced the pump mine came with that has variable flow.

DaveO Posted January 9 Share Posted January 9 Mine is very quiet. I keep it in the living room and it interferes with nothing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The output nozzle remains below the water line so there is no splashing sound what so ever. The pump is as close to silent as it gets as well.

Celly Rasbora Posted June 21 Share Posted June 21 I'm considering purchasing this tank. Is it worth it? I have a 15 gallon, but I think I want to get a bigger tank and the filtration system is very appealing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaveO Posted June 21 Share Posted June 21 I have the 15 as well, but I get far more enjoyment from the 32. Definitely worth it. I don't think you can see them in this photo but there is about one million shrimp along with a couple dozen dwarf barbs and rasbora in this tank. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robs Fish Posted Wednesday at 07:54 AM Share Posted Wednesday at 07:54 AM Flex 15 here. The noisiest thing on it is the dual-output airpump i got from amazon. Powerhead nozzle/pump is virtually silent. I've only had it a month but theres not a whole lot going on in the sump, so I don't anticipate it will get noisier with age.

Edsland Posted Wednesday at 11:40 AM Share Posted Wednesday at 11:40 AM I have the 15 and a few times I had a humming noise till I wiggled the pipe from the power head to the nozzle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tedrock Posted Thursday at 02:27 AM Share Posted Thursday at 02:27 AM I have had the 32.5 for a year and half and it remains the quietest tank I have purchased. Only the air bubbles can be heard. I would endorse this product if you are looking for a 32 gallon. But consider a 55 gallon for more stocking choices. Same cost more choices.
