Hello,

I don't have any experience with the newer MaxiJet pro power heads.

Can the impellers be swapped like the older MaxiJets?

For example you could put a MJ900 impeller in a MJ1200 body and basically make it a MJ900.

The reason I ask is my dog ate the cord on my HOT Magnum. I just found out the HOT Magnum has been discontinued. (It wasn't my favorite but the only way I had to run carbon)

So...

I bought the new Marineland Internal Polishing filter. It runs the same paper cartridges as the HOT magnum and you can also run carbon in it.

The new Marineland Internal Polishing filter uses what I believe is a MaxiJet 1200 Pro powerhead.

I want to slow it down. I only have a 50 gallon tank and this thing is like turning on a fire hose in my tank. I'd like to get a MJ600 Pro or even a MJ 400 Pro impeller and swap it out.

But I don't know if it's possible. So is it? Has anyone done a swap?
