hey..
i would like to know where i can buy two SICCE impleros unmoded,without any mesh or moding..just 2 SICCE impelors..
if someone can buy them for me and send it to me in israel i can send hin the money with some extra cash for the trouble..

i would like to do the mod as shown in the picture above but i can get only MESHed SICCE impleros in israel..i belive that working the way shown in the picture above will be more affective.
thats why i need ywo stock SICCE impellors..

thank you.

Since you are in Isreal, you may try the European markets. The pumps I got here were wired just for sal in America. Only a few on line vendors carry the pumps, or ATI line of skimmers, but any that do should be able to get the impellers. I think Reef Geek carries the skimmers.

Hahnmeister - so you don't think the body and neck is too small to handle all the air correct? I was just afraid it was going to overwhelm and overflow the skimmer.

I haven't tried the meshmod on the sedra 5000, but I figure the sicce would be better regardless. Are you of the same opinion?

Thx.

FORCE FED QO 3000?

FORCE FED QO 3000?

Startup issues and reduction in air draw from head pressure seem to be common problems with this pump.

Would force feeding with a linear air pump be a good option? Any idea how much air they could handle?

You can restrict the Sicce because yes, at 1000+lph it would be too much. By restricting the Sicce to about 700lph you will not have the overflow problems.

Hahn - stupid question - how do you restrict the Sicce? any pics or threads I can look at? Thanks.
