Impeller on Return Pump looks cracked

kain · Jun 29, 2017

I have an old Tunze return pump that I took out to clean. When I took the impeller out to clean I noticed what looks like a hairline crack. The inside looks like its rusting. Pretty safe to say that I shouldn't be using this pump any more. Is that true?

Or just buy a new impeller

Yes change pump or impeller asap. Maybe follow it up with a water change.

Change it asap or get a new pump. My 150g tank crash from my tunze wave box motor block had a cracked and rust.

I'm thinking about going with a dc pump. Anyone have any experience with the Jebaos?
