Red Dragons and flow rates

Anyone here know of a source for Red Dragon pumps? I've got a Red Dragon 10 that I've been using on my fresh water 330g tank, but i believe it might be pushing a little too much flow for my bead filter, so I'm looking to replace it with a smaller model. The RD 10 pushes 2650 gph, and from what I can tell, the AquaDyne .6 bead filter I have recommends a flow of 1800 gph. Having a hard time finding info on the RD's, but I know I love them because of how quiet they are.

Yeah they're pricy for sure. I think I've figured out a way to adjust the plumbing and keep the same pump.
