Fitting a fresh set restores the ReefWave 25 to its full rated output; it does not fit the larger ReefWave 45, which uses its own impeller set (R35245).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eKey features\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGenuine Red Sea impeller set, exact fit for the ReefWave 25 (RW25) only\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe primary wear part behind a gradual drop in flow\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRestores the pump to its full rated output\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHand-fitted during routine service — the end cap and cage come off first, no tools needed for the impeller itself\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePairs with the impeller cage set at the same service interval\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eFits\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eRed Sea ReefWave 25 (RW25) only\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eDoes not fit\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eRed Sea ReefWave 45 (RW45) — use impeller set R35245 instead\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eGenuine part number\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eR35234\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eRestores rated flow\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eUp to 7,500 L\/h (1,980 GPH)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSuitable for, and not suitable for\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSuited to a ReefWave 25 that has lost noticeable flow despite a clean impeller cage and housing.

A pump that's gone noisy, rough or stopped altogether is more likely the motor assembly or rotor shaft.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eDoes this fit the ReefWave 45?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNo — the ReefWave 45 takes its own impeller set, part number R35245.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eDo I need any tools?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNo. Once the end cap and impeller cage are off, the impeller lifts out and the new one presses in by hand.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"RedSea","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54774158655779,"sku":"RED629","price":37.95,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0972\/7236\/5347\/files\/RED629_1.jpg?v=1772078768","url":"https:\/\/nicksaquariumoceanariumterrarium.com.au\/products\/red-sea-reefwave-25-impeller-set","provider":"Nicks AOT","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
