I have four MP60s in my 450. I routinely soak them in vinegar, take them apart and clean them. This time I can't twist the nozzle/screen off. What should I do? I don't want to damage the screen.
 
Following. Have had the same issue with an mp40 close to a year now even after vinegar and acid baths it still doesn't want to break loose.
 
I notice the MP60 is turn clockwise to open. Do not use vinegar on the magnet. I mix 50% vinegar and 50% water then soak for 15 min but that enough to crack the magnet. I just open RMA and sent an wetside with crack magnet for repair. You can soak all other part of the wetside but not the magnet.
 

HOW MUCH DOES A FISH’S FEEDING REQUIREMENTS AFFECT YOUR STOCKING DECISIONS?

  • A lot! - I avoid fish that require frequent or specialized feeding

  • Quite a bit, but an automatic feeder can change my answer

  • It depends on whether my nutrient export can handle it

  • Not much. I’m willing to adjust my routine

  • Not at all. Feeding demands don’t limit my stocking choices

  • I usually learn about the demanding feeding schedule after buying the fish!
