fluval 405

[andyskylark]

I've downsized my tank to a little 4ft, and still want to use my fluval 405, because of my disability, i hate cleaning the little heater and pump combined in a box as its too much cleaning, the problem i have is my 405 is rattling more than a junkie, im sure its the impeller, can't find one on amazon or my local shop, can i use an alternative fluval pump impeller

I just saw your not in the states so shipping might be a issue plus I found this. I would change shaft and impeller at the same time. They are out there

Impeller, impeller shaft, impeller cover and o ring should really be changed every 12 to 18 months on fluval canisters. Mine tend to start rattling once they get to about a year.

Heres a link to the same maintenance kit that @Airborne 82nd posted for UK delivery. Im finding plenty of other sellers offering the same. Any good aquarium shop should still be selling 05 parts, and if they arent they could get them in for you. Lanarkshire is a bit out in the sticks though? An hour from Glasgow?
