I think that the linear compreesor aquarium pumps are a good choice.
They have a nice balnnce of low noise, high capacity, pressure and low electrical consumption for a modest sized fish room on a central air supply.
Also having a spare diaphragm on hand is a good idea not that they need replacing very often. They are modestly priced also. In fact so reasonable that you can probably afford two so there is a back up if something serious goes wrong.
Even a fairly small unit will have enough capacity to allow for you to expand the number of aquariums.
Their low cost also allows for you to use two pumps plus a spare if your fish room gets larger than you presently concieve it. These are poular strategies of redundancy that are very popular in commercial aquaculture, albeit on a larger scale.
Many units with plenty of capacity for your current fishroom are approximately $100 US.
