[hoang1912]

2 days ago, my canister have a really aoying sound come from impeller. I did some research and found out that I can fix the vibration of the impeller with silicon oil but I dont know which one is safe for aquarium, can anyone show me?

Is it really worth the risk versus buying a new impeller?

 

What sort of canister do you have?

I bought from here http://cgi.ebay.com.au/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=271046349841. How can I know which impeller is suitable for mine?

I'm pretty sure that's a clone of the Sunsun HW-304B/404B 2000Lph/2200Lph canister filters.

 

You're in luck. I have a sunsun HW-303B 1000Lph canister, but I bought the HW-304B replacement impeller by mistake recently.

I still have it sitting in my garage doing nothing.

 

You can have it for free - or in exchange for some cherry shrimps for my new 3ft tank. 

 

pm me your address Hoang.

No problem. Happy to help.

What a coincidence I had one lying around. 

 

A couple of SKF members have been generous in giving me stuff.

Fishmosy is giving me something (thanks dude). So it's only right to share the luv. 

 

Soon this forum will be called Shrimp Keepers Forum Family, with all the generosity going on.
