External Filter Replacements

[Sam_Ashton]

I was doing a spot of cleaning today and I broke something!! Because of this my filter is sucking in about 50% air and is making a horrible noise.

My filter is a Hydor 20

Can someone please tell me the name of this item and reassure me that I can easily buy a replacment without buying a whole new filter?

Thanks

Sam

If the crack is somewhere nice and easy, I suggest removing the part, and sealing it with some sort of good adhesive (super glue maybe). Either that or some waterproof tape. Other than that, I would ask your LFS or wherever you bought it to see if they sell replacement parts.

That looks like the intake tube.

You can try to contact Hydor from here: Hydor

I think they have replacement parts available. I know people received new powerheads when there was a recall a few months ago, so I think they have reasonable customer service.
