Default Maxi jet impeller

Are there any aquarium stores that sell marineland 1200 pro impellers? It would be a shame to buy everything when I only need the impeller. I'd rather go to a store over ordering online. Any help is appreciated.

Yeah I gave them a quick call but they wouldn't give me a price over the phone that was a little frustrating

Seems weird that a store which sells items would not provide a price over the phone. Not sure what the big secret is

Story of my life. I own 4 or 5 Maxi Jet pumps that would be perfectly fine except that one or more blades on the impellers have broken rendering them useless. I've decided that enough is enough and I'm not going to buy any more $30 pumps when all I need is the two cent impeller blades. Pick another brand, you'll be much better off in the long run.

The original maxijets were probably the best pump ever. At least as far as abuse they would take.

The marineland ones are terrible.

The cobalt ones are pretty good, I don't think they are as good as the original but I've had those last a long time. If you have any friends in the hobby long term they may have some old maxijets in boxes of random junk that can help you out. I got rid of a lot of that stuff when I moved or I'd check and see if I have any.
