Posted	fluval 405 problems
05-03-2006 19:51 by Bill	I purchased a Fluval 405 in January and it as stopped working twice now the impeller has broke both times, the little piece of plastic that stops it spinning round has snapped off. I wondered if anyone else as had any problems.
05-03-2006 21:34 by janette	mmm i got myself a 305 a few weeks ago had no probs yet, the little black plastic thing?do you mean the ceramic impeller shaft, is it that whats broke if so you can get replacements no problems if it is they are quite fragile
06-03-2006 09:04 by Alan	The fluval curse strikes again perhaps we are coming to the point of the in built faults that appear just a suspicion of mine. Scrap the fluval get an eheim.
06-03-2006 16:38 by stevebrillo	yup eheim
06-03-2006 22:22 by Linda Chenapa	Are you sure it was in properly? (Sorry if that sounds as though you don't know but not meant to) Did you buy it new or used?
07-03-2006 15:06 by giles	The curse of the fluval strikes again,go for the eheim its the only way
07-03-2006 20:51 by ben	What little bit of plastic? There should be nothing stopping it going around!
07-03-2006 20:52 by Linda Chenapa	True ben. 'the little piece of plastic that stops it spinning round has snapped off.'?
08-03-2006 08:34 by Alan	I suspect it is a similar piece that was flawed in the 404 its the impellor housing the base of it warps because it can't handle the heat of the pump and this jams the impellor. This is such a basic thing making sure the materials are stable under normal operating temperature but they are not it is an absolute joke that something so basic can be over looked.
