aqua medic dosing pump replacement drive wheel in canada
 
I need a replacement drive wheel for my aqua medic do ser http://www.aqua-medic.com/product/sp...0-drive-wheel/

Last time it broke I got it from JL but seems it's not on their website anymore and I'm having a hard time finding it from a Canadian retailer.
Aqua medic USA has it but it's $16 plus $20 shipping plus 16% exchange rate
Anyone know of anywhere in Canada that it won't cost me triple what's its worth by the time I get it?

Not a single site sponsor is an aqua medic dealer?

aqua medic USA website seems to be down did they go out of business?

Im getting ****ed off trying to find one of these that ship to Canada so I may just order another doser.

are the magic marine any good? i recall hearing some people use them? or the Jaebo ones? both seem cheep online

So jl does not sell parts for it anymore? If not I can order some parts and ship in the us, I'll take a look later on and see how much cost

I don't know if the brands you mention are any good or bad the looks fine

I've always been happy with my BRS and J&L-Shlobster dosing pumps
They haven't failed yet. They're well built
Cost is about the same as a multi unit, but they last
If you don't have a tank controller all you'd need are some timers
You'll save money in the long run, and no repairs aside from tube replacements
Downside is the lack of programming

thanks for the offer! Ive used ship happens before and its great but time is an issue so i usually order just to my house.
I did some googling and ordered a magic marine triple doser for $95 usd. shipped. the friday after work beers may have helped in my quick decision........
JL no longer sells the drive wheel and havent for some time apparently.

Wow, $95, good score :wink:
Hopefully it serves you well
