Gobytron my 2 sedra 5000's are needle wheel, I am quite suprised this is not.

however one must never assume anything because you know what that leads too.....

I honestly was going to run down to JL and ask them why they told me none of their sedras were needle wheels....
I would have definitely made an ass out of me.

I have actually been trying to find a brand new needle wheel sedra with no luck.....
maybe you could point me in the right direction?

I have hijacked this thread so bad now that I think I might have to buy this skimmer.

so whats the difference between a paddlewheel impeller and a standard one?

You can buy them at OA. I ordered mine from Euro-reef direct from usa 'cause I needed some other parts too for my skimmer.
