Does anyone know where i can get replacement parts for a mag pump?
See the pic i have attached.
I noticed while feeding the fish yesterday night at 10pm that there was a vibrating sound coming from my sump. I thought something was touching the pump but noticed nothing. Usually the pump tends to suck up a crab shell or some sand that gets stirred up in the sump so i decided to turn off the pump temporarily. Now when i plugged it back in, the pump wouldnt start up.
As of this morning, i took off the cover plate and noticed a crack in the plate and a piece of a propeller missing.
Does anyone know where i can get these parts replaced as i have no return pump as of this moment?

Some LFS's and places that carry pond supplies might have the impeller in stock. I'd call around and you can probably find one fairly locally.

The housing piece pose more of a problem. Maybe another reefer has a Mag 7 they aren't currently using and can loan you the housing until you get one through the mail?

I was planning on going around locally to find one but dont have much of the time to do so. Kinda sucks but i always wondered what might happen if my pump fails. Fortunately my sump wont overflow with the amount of water rushing back in. Just bad timing for this issue.
