Replacing both at once avoids a mismatched seal.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eHow do I know if it's the impeller and not something else causing weak flow?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCheck for visible chips or cracks on the impeller fins first, and listen for a change in motor noise. If the impeller looks intact and the filter still won't prime, the issue may be elsewhere in the flow path rather than the impeller.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Fluval","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55293297426723,"sku":"FG02G","price":96.95,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0972\/7236\/5347\/files\/FG02g.png?v=1782879624","url":"https:\/\/nicksaquariumoceanariumterrarium.com.au\/products\/fluval-g6-impeller-assembly-and-cover","provider":"Nicks Aquarium Oceanarium Terrarium","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
