People, can you tell me if this foam maker is sufficient for 500 liters, and has anyone dealt with this type of foam maker regarding its noise level and any drawbacks?

What does "for 500 liters" mean? If there are an anemone and two clownfish living in 500 liters, that's one thing, but if it's an SPS reef with schools of fish, then, you know, it's somewhat different. A soft reef (plus a bit of LPS) with a moderate fish load will work. I use such setups myself. But it's NOISY! That can't be denied. So if the aquarium is in an apartment, then either soundproofing or (which is better) a different model is needed. There are also other tuning options. You need to consult with someone about that.

So what is better to take, please advise and share links on where to get it!

A normal skimmer costs normal money. If you want something cheaper, at least get one like this. Even then, it won't be enough (I have a pump that is more powerful, 3000 l/h for 240 l), you need to search. - Octopuses, DIY options with pumps to choose from, there are similar ones in ReefLab, just with pumps to choose from. Sorry to anyone I didn't mention; if the topic starter is interested, they will reach out themselves. You can also check the classifieds for used ones. Recently, I sold a used body without a pump, but you can equip it with a new pump and go ahead. In short, the selection is not that small. If you really can't find anything, then go to foreign stores.

Off-topic, but can it be like this too?
