Wrapping the pipe with foam insulation won't do the trick as the humming still transfers through my current foam pads. It is then amplified through the wall

I'd thought about moving a couple pieces here and there to get it all away from the wall, but the weight of the long section is too much and everything sags, thus it will always rest on something

On the plus side, installing individual pumps should eliminate one issue ...
Right now I'm having to adjust the chaeto tank level too often and, if I make any adjustments on the reactors, it's messes up the chaeto level
Same goes if I would ever shut off the uv/chiller circuit for any reason
I'm sure I will like having everything on it's own pump and with the adjustable eheim compacts I won't need the ball valves anymore

I'll be able to service individual hardware pieces without shutting everything down, service the reactors without the chaeto overflowing etc
