aquabee for turbofloater multi

[beemert]

greetings

i think my aquabee pump for my turbofloater multi has given up the ghost. has been running for 4 years or so. is very week and won't suck air anymore. i cleaned it, but that didn't help. if i put on the small inlet nozzle that it has always had on it, it won't pump at all.

does anyone know where i can get another? the one i have came with a needle wheel already installed.

is there a replacement for this pump?

TIA
bruce

You could use a dolphin needle wheel but the aquabee and ehiem needlewheels are better. Unfortunatly they are also harder to find and more expensive. Did you try to poke a hanger through the air intake ontop of the aquabee? Where the air hose connects in?

yes, it is clear.

it is strange in that the whole output of the pump is reduced.

thanx

What about taking out the reducer on the intake of the aquabee?
