Rick Posted November 24, 2010 Share Posted November 24, 2010 My skimmer pump is starting to annoy me (getting noisy) so I think it's time to make a change. I have a Mag 2 here that I think would work great but I need a needle wheel for it. Anyone have a spare hanging around they want to get rid of?

Michael7979 Posted November 24, 2010 Share Posted November 24, 2010 I know where there will be one raffled off on 12-12-10! (guess I read that 1st post wrong, sorry) DOH! DOH! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
impur Posted November 24, 2010 Share Posted November 24, 2010 I would just add mesh to the impeller. Cheaper, easy to remove, works better than needle wheel. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
reef165 Posted November 24, 2010 Share Posted November 24, 2010 I used a very small drillbit once and drilled several holes in each blade and then weeved fishing line through all the holes. Worked very well IMO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
impur Posted November 24, 2010 Share Posted November 24, 2010 Yep anything to help chop up the bubbles. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Worked very well IMO. I also thought about doing this but was hoping to find one of the needle wheels first. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
