    I just got my 55 running and I have an old tidepool that I am using for my w/d and it just seems really loud. I have moved my pumps all around and nothing helps. Is this just something that comes with having a w/d or is there a way to help the noise? Thanks for the input.

    Need more info, like what noise are you talking about? Is it when the water hits the wet/dry or is it the vibration(sp) of the return pump?

    Well, I have been messing with it a lot and I have a berlin turbo protein skimmer and I have narrowed it down to that. I think I might take it back and get something different.
