Plumbing RD 50?
Do you recommend a section of silicone hose with hose barbs into return (in sump) or hard pipe?

Personally I like the silicone hose solution, as it allows for a certain amount of flexibility and reduces any kind of vibration transfer, that said the pump is near in-audible and has negligible vibration and rubber feet. The most of amount of vibration will come from the plumbing, cavitation etc.

I hard plumbed my 80 watt and got vibrations through my bulkhead. I put a short piece of hose in and it’s silent.
No need for a mat under these bad boys Cheers Tim |
