Help w/ mp10

[wsun083]

I have an mp10 that is very noisy. It's coming from the wetside. I think that the ceramic bearing in the wetside has gone bad. I couldn't find it on your website. Can you send me a link to where I can buy this? Thanks

wsun,

For the MP10 wetside, we do not sell bearings. Personally, I would recommend replacing the wetframe found here: http://ecotechmarine.com/parts-store/#MP10

I replaced the wet side, it helped but there was the cost and I wonder how long before it gets noisy.

i've had problems w/ both the mp40 and now the mp10. it's not the noise that's the issue, it's the fact that it rotates and i think that the flow rate isn't as high as it should be. it might be an issue w/ my glass being too thick?

wsun,

Only the propeller should rotate on your wetside, the entire unit should not be moving. If the entire wetside is rotating this is generally a sign that the wetside is receiving to much magnetic coupling force as a result of improper spacer setting. I would highly recommend measuring the thickness of your aquarium, and adjusting the spacers accordingly.
