Heres the story: Ran this pump in a reef tank with tons of sps. Left for business trip, wife mistakenly dumped half a bottle of alk buffering solution in tank and froze the impellers of almost all pumps including return one.
Disaster came down, started a new tank FOWLR for now and dont need so much flow so im parting with some stuff.

The pump's ceramic rings are still stuck to the impeller with the excess carbonate, so you have to free them or get new ones for the pump to work. These rings are really cheap, or if you want, can soak the shaft on some acidic solution and free them.
The wiring, controler box, sensor and motor of the pump are all like new and working perfectly. This pump is very powerful and i wouldnt get it for any tanks less than 48" long.
I bought it for $100 and am selling for $50 firm.

To be honest the pump is sitting in my closet and i am traveling so am avoiding the trouble of going after this. If i get the part, might just keep it.
Whoever has a bit of time to get this, will save $50 from buying anew one.
While taking the pic i was able to free one of the bearings so only one is stuck from calcium buildup.
I guarantee everything in the pump is new and works besides this ceramic bearing.
If anyone wants this, it is still available.
Thanks
