Ehim? If it is they seem to be a bomb proof pump my one for my calcium pumped sand and rocks for a while before I noticed.

yeah Eheim, well worth the cost for those pumps.
I pick up the box of 2x2 gallon jugs of vinegar at US costco for $4. always keep 2 jugs on hand lol. ..... ok take that however u want.... anyway... hmmm don't know where to find acid. Didn't get to check this before I went to home depot. oh well. I'll go check and hope it's all gone. It was still pumping, I think the intake being clogged was the bigger issue than the buildup overall. but I expect it to be good as new once it's done it's bath.

Alright, so after all has been dissolved... or most... some of it is being stubborn, it seems the calcium buildup has worn my impeller to hell. Looks like a scratching post.
No bulging or anything but the plastic casing is scored. JL sells new impeller for around $80 I think when I called. Now... I've been thinking about the Speedwave DC-5000..... Variable pump.. twice as much output as the eheim and can be controlled. I'm gonna start a new thread to see if anyone's heard anything about it. Eheim 1260.1262 vs. Speedwave pump If you have any opinions (aside from Eheim rocks cause I already know that) please add. Last edited by Rogue951; 04-18-2013 at 11:32 PM.
