Looking for a quality skimmer

I have a 36 gal bowfront and DO NOT have a sump. I had an AquaC Remora HOB skimmer that worked beautifully. Unfortunately in a recent move, the AquaC took a nose dive on to some concrete and was obliterated.

I loved the AquaC but it was quite noisy. Are there any suggestions for a similar HOB skimmer that might not be as noisy or is AquaC my best bet still.

Not familiar with the noise from the remora. I recommend the eshopps h100. Fairly quite ands is really good for the $$

No personal experience, but when I was looking for HOB skimmer, I was reading that the Aquamaxx skimmer is pretty quiet.
