I am looking for a replacement impeller for my Varios8. My current impeller swelled while in storage. I have not been able to find anywhere that sells them. Does anyone know of a site/shop that might have one to purchase. The Coralvue site says out of stock as well. Is there any alternative for an impeller replacement? Thanks for any help you can provide.

@mcarroll Thank you. luckily, I have another pump that I am using. I was going to sell/trade this one to a friend since I am not using it but I wanted to make sure it was in working order or the necessary parts were available before we did that.

It’s worth checking the impeller magnet housing of the pump itself! — these can also swell, subsequently cracking and starting to rust… (this can even lead to significant electrical current leak into the aquarium, such as with the first-gen Koralia wave makers!)

Thank you for that information. I will take a look at that.
