Thats weird. I think my Blue Line / Pan World pumps aren't loud at all. A slight hum and thats about it. I'm sure if you find a way to disconnect the pump that would help with the noise but then you may encounter a heat problem.

My pan world 100pxx make some humming noise comming out of fan too, but it is not really loud.
Is it used or new? Because, my used Iwaki 40RLT makes a lots of noise.
I am thinking about getting T4 or tunze pump.

You can disassemble it and try to clean the impeller and fan part.

I did cleaned everything. The pump is about 4 months old. I bought it from another reefer. Maybe it needs to be repaired or something. Do you guys know where to send these thing in for repair?
Thanks

Mine was really loud too. Then I put a foam pad under the pump and took the screws out that had been holding it down. It made a huge difference, but I can still hear it.

Thanks Highlander...

I did everything I could but it's still very loud. I'm sending it to Panworld to have it fix.
