The big concern on these is the exposed impeller.

This is one post that has me going "Fer Christs sakes"...

The impellor is NOT exposed. When on, NOTHING can enter into the stream, not even a suicidal goby.

That said, IF one was hyper-worried, a very, very simple solution comes to mind. Think of a tennis racket. See all those strings? Do the same thing. Drill some small holes (1/16th inch bit), then string some fishing line, maybe 1-2 lb test, through the holes. Make a pattern so thing can gain entry. The fishing line is thin enough not to slow down the water very much, and strong enough to repel any gobies/blennies with suicidal tendencies.

Such a simple solution to all your carping, with not one of the 'problems' inherent. Elegant, huh?

Regards.
