single or double is fine.
When do you need them by?[/b]
Robert -
Here is a link to the Stockman version of the silent standpipe. It should easily fit in the chamber of the salt solutions box. For some reason, the pics wouldn't load on my firefox at home, but I can see them on internet explorer in the office. It's a DIY.

Those sponges may help to muffle the noise. I'd start with what salt solutions sends and see how you feel. You might also ask them how loud the overflows are and whether they recommend a stockman or durso standpipe. They should know exaclty what you mean as the terms are common in the reef community.
Edit - Durso and Stockman took down the links to the original Stockman design. Here it is:

If the noise doesn't bother you with the ones you have, you'll probably be ok. Since I don't have a dedicated fishroom and my tank sits behind the sofa in the tv room, I want it as quiet as possible. I paid extra to have my electrician run dedicated circuits for my tv and audio to avoid feedback, only to listen to noisy overflows! With your floor drains, spills probably aren't the end of the world, but just make sure those sponges are clean. Putting 400-500 gph through them can clog them quickly. Probably not a bad idea to soak them overnight in mild bleach solution like you would to recharge a micron filter pad every so often. Of course, if you're having no clogging or noise problems, keep doing what you're doing. You definitely have the edge on me in raising featherfins! Have you seen more color in your F1s than you did the WCs? I remember you mentioning that the WCs were especially finicky about coloring up, consistent with reports.[/b]
W/c ones needs to settle down but definitely have more marbling and the green is specially darker , recently the beta male has taken over the female(it's a reverse trio), but both are still flashing their breeding colors.[/b]
