Bad Pump Design by JOE CRANE

Experience Level: Intermediate

Comments: Right out the box the skimmer works great. Unfortunately, the pump that comes with the skimmer is annoyingly loud because the rotating magnet/propeller has about a half inch of slop in it and the propeller scrapes on the bottom plate around the intake hole. I went to the local hardware store and installed a 3/8" thick nylon washer to keep the propeller from scraping on the area around the intake hole. It now runs extremely quieter than it initially did out of the box. If it wasn't for the problem that you buy with the pump, I would have rated this skimmer 5 stars. I would not recommend this product to my friends.
