I think i'm gonna go with the Bubble Magnus, reviews say its pretty quiet. Vertex reviews say its pretty loud.

the BM NAC6 is a better skimmer with better pump, and more air injection than the vertex in-80 or in-100.(510 lph of air injection w/ atmann 2500 mesh wheel)
resun pumps sux.

A used skimmer would be my choice. Lots of them out there.
