Jebao parts

[Silly clownfish]

Anyone know where to get parts for Jebao pumps? The clear plastic impeller on my DCP-5000 cracked when I took it apart to clean it (rare occurrence that only happened when I broke down the tank a few months ago). It was running for about 6 and a half years, so no complaints, and it is cheap enough to just buy a new one. But I hate the mentality of throwing things away and buying a whole new one when it just needs a part.

Your buying a new pump. Jebao secondary parts are non existent, unless someone else has a trash pump with a good impeller to sell/give to you. You got 6+ years out of a chinesium pump, I'm impressed. I have the same dcp return pump coming up on that point and I hope it keeps chugging!!

Thanks, I had seen impellers for other dcp models on Amazon, but not the 5000. And yes, they are a third of the price of a new pump. I figured I was stuck getting a new one. Yes, Chinese manufacturers like to have everything be throwaway.
