I'm guessing every thing on that pump is repairable/replaceable. When you socked it did you take it all apart?

Talking Keep it clean folks!
Best bang for the buck is the WP series Jebao wave makers I have wp 25's. As with any pump keeping the cage, motor, impeller and rotor clean with vinegar soaks is the secret to long life I find. I also run a tunze and it works well too.
