Varios 6 with a brand new volute from Coral Vue due to the old one having a ball valve glued in. Just pulled from system and cleaned.

Asking $215 shipped.

Pretty sure it was pvc cement. I bought it that way so I’m not 100% sure. I think a replacement volute is ~$35 as I thought about getting one, then decided I could make it work.
 
Forgot to add I’m open to trade/partial trade for a Kessil 360x, gyre, or small tank led light.
 
ah, so they glued the treaded union onto the pump?

Yep. I think Coral Vue sells replacement volutes. I just reduced it to 1” since I didn’t need the full flow.
 
Bumpity
 
How did you reduce it to 1" with that? Whats the height of it with that valve?

Roughly 11". Just a 1-1/2" to 1" reducing fitting.
 
Update - I went ahead and got a new volute from Coral Vue so now you get a brand new volute! Updated the original post with new pics. :)
 
Let me check my sump and see if I have space. I am trying to do 2 returns for redundancy and to add more flow since I have too many angles.
