Default Quiet yet effective skimmer

I had one in the living room, along with an Ev-200 under a second tank
and it didn't bother me a bit. Maybe you need to invest in less duct
tape and in more surround sound. Crank up the volume to 10! LOL

Yeah, I have the O-ring. It certainly helps but it's still loud
enough that I turn it off if I'm going to watch a movie. If I was
willing to silicone the collection cup in place it would be damn near
silent. Of course that would make maintenance a pain ). I should
try wrapping duct tape around it.
As for performance... I think it's great. It's certainly more quiet
than my last skimmer but still too loud to have 2 of them in the
living room.
