what should i use to hold them together ,,,could i use glue???

 

[rkaragozler]

nothing, if you make the hole to big it will not work, same size or a tad smaller.

Use a much smaller drill bit and drill into the post.
Take a small screw and screw into the post until it bites.
Pull the screw out hopefully with the post.

If that doesnt work then try to drill it out.

im barrie,,,those are screwed in,,if so maybe i can put a slit into it and use a small flathead to screw it out

 

[Imbarrie]

The one I have is not a screw in.

hey dude,

From the picture it looks like you snapped the plastic neck. I had done this to my Koralia too. I tried gluing it back and all the things you could think of but it was NOISY as hell because the rubber base wasn't attached and the pump vibration didn't have a base.

I suggest getting a new red neck part and putting it in (call Hydor or something). It's tough to really fix that.

you can just push the other half of that rod out and still put the other side back in. you just won't be able to move it as much as before though. same isht happened to mine. still works though..

call up hydor. I broke the red piece off, called them and they sent me a new piece no charge. Excellent customer service.

Mine also broke and when I contacted the company, they sent me a brand new part (free of charge). Good Luck!!
