Hey how loud is your setup? I have the same size pump and I am thinking about going to the store today to get everything I need but ?i fear this pump is way too big and will make unnecissary nosie, I have to keep things stealthy. Thanks.

couldnt hear the pump at all. remember its in gallons of water that definitely absorb the sound it makes. the loudest noise from your grow will be your fans and that can get pretty loud.

Hmm okay well I have a Ten gallon (i think not sure Ill get it outa my car later today) rubbermaid container a 10-30 gallon (very quiet) air pump, only one output though into an airstone strip. 396 gph (which I think is overdoing it and causing unnecissary noise) pump.

Basicly it will be very close to the setup you have, I dont have net pots or rockwool yet though.

So you say when the pump is in the water it is a lot quieter? I plan on using small computer fans, those will be louder than the pump when its running? If so then I wont go buy a smaller pump : )

your pump should be perfect. if you have a smaller pump you will not build enough pressure and not achieve a good mist from your sprayers. trust me that pump will be silent once in the water.

peace
