Help
So I'm still setting up my 90 and I took apart the return pump to find that it is trashed. I was thinking about replacing it with a Sedra since they are on sale at J&L. Can anyone give me some feedback on these pumps any problems? How quiet are they? Should I look at something differant? Thanks for the feedback, much appreciated.

I recently had to replace the impeller on my sedra 5000, but had it for 5 years. (mine has the needle wheel for skimmer).
I've heard that many other people have had to replace these impellers after relatively short lives because they swell with corrosion between the impeller magnet and the casing. They may have rectified the problem by now. My Mak 4 has been running for 4 1/2 years pushing water up 6 feet. Great pump for the price. 1200gph. around $220 i think
