So I just upgraded to a JBJ 65, and in the market for a media reactor to run GFO. I currently have an IM Minimax Desktop reactor, and find that it's a bit loud and ineffective. What are some low profile/quiet reactors that wouldn't need to be run in a sump?

I've been looking at the Aquamaxx Fluidized GFO and Carbon Filter Media Reactor FR-1E.

I have ran GFO in this hang on the below model for years


With the right flow valve, it has done a great job.

But, I have not heard how loud, the " pump option"... is?
