it's good, here's a tip though....Dec 27, 2006
By William A. Heimiller
...if you only use one of the two outputs(like I do), put a piece of hose onto the unused outlet - it will muffle the noise it makes[I don't know why they don't tell you this in the pump instructions!]. If both outlets have hoses on them, whether they are in the water or not, this will be a quiet air pump. Having two outputs is great, you could easily feed two 30 gal tanks with this, and it seems like this could handle a 100 gal tank.
Also!: Make sure to position your bubbles emitting from your stone/bubblewall NOT near(under) your filter intake. The intake will take in the air bubbles and cause significant noise as it spits them out up near the filter[gheez, why don't they tell you this in the pump instructions!]. With a quiet pump and keeping your air bubbles away from the filter intake, you should have a system quiet enough to sleep next to. Therefore I don't recommend using a full length back bubble wall with a top filter, as the filter will take in the bubbles and cause noise.
Whatever you do, don't buy Top Fin pumps,...they're cheap and cheaply made - too noisy. Both Tetra Whisper and Rena brands have superior quiet engineering.

Super Quiet!Apr 17, 2007
By Kenny Mcelroy
I've had this for a couple of months now and it's still super quiet...which I need as my tank is in my bedroom. Product is as described. ;-)

 Works great, fairly quiet...Mar 09, 2011
By B. McClure
"Ben"
The vibrations it makes are certainly not what I would describe as a "whisper", but it is quiet enough none-the-less.
Great bang for the buck--easily handles two large air stones at once.

Large Pump!!!Jul 27, 2011
By CARRASQUEL
Pump is about 8 1/2 long! "It's really big" and has great air flow!!! Comes with a triple connector and two connectors that you can adjust with the airline hoses. "That's a bonus"! It's so worth it and it's in my 55 Gallon fish tank. One little thing "It hum's but If you stay away at least six feet the noise won't matter. Still worth it!!!!!!!! The bigger the motor---The bigger the noise because of its magnets. You can always cover the pump with a heavy towl to cover the noise or put it in a empty cabinet.

Pleasantly SuprisedJun 24, 2011
By Andrew A. Marchant
My first aquarium pump was a Wal-Mart special. I had it running two decorations, and one side fizzled out. When I went to investigate the problem the air output nozzle had cracked and broken off.
Today I got my Tetra Whisper pump. I plugged this baby in and was pleasantly surprised. Air is now gushing out of my decorations and my aquarium feels healthier already. The pump is very quiet, and I cannot hear the pump over the sound of trickling water coming from my filter. The pump came with two airline regulators and a hose T valve.
I want to add more air to my tank like a bubble wand, and I will definitely look into another Tetra Pump.
