Blau reef motion 3kdc was created by Jonlate (Jon Late)
Hi guys,
Does anyone please have any parts for a Blau Reef Motion 3KDC? I am looking for a impeller.
Belive it or not, I have just been quoted over €55 for just the impeller!!!
I was thinking it would be around €15-20 like most other pumps are, not that much!
Or does anyone know where I can get one cheaper? Or what other ones may fit this pump.
I bought the pump in the first place because it was a good pump and had the ability to be controlled in 1 percentages. This made it great for my system as I could tune it to an exact speed so my overflow was nearly silent.
I don't want to bin the whole unit, so please can anyone help me.
Jonathan

Yes i did, they would have to order me one in from Blau. The impeller would still cost that much even if I ordered from Blau
That's why I am hoping for a broken one!!

Thanks Chris, I knew someone would know and save me some penny's.
I have the 3KDC pump, are all the Jebao ones the same size or should I get the DC3000 one as that should be the equivalent.
Thanks again

You need to get the one for the 3000.....there all slightly different....look very similar but slight differences in length and diameter.......
What happened to your old one???I've found the the black disc gets a calcium build up around the shaft and it's impossible to clean out

I have faint crack lines coming across the shaft bit, ( not that sort of crack lines) and I dont want it to explode. At the moment I still have it running, but know it's going to break off sooner rather than later.
Why don't Blau sell them with every pump, this make it easy to find them if you needed one.
Even seahorse didn't have any in stock. And can not find any uk site selling them on their online shops.
How do you know that Jebao one fits? Where have you been to find that out? Is that what you replaced our with?
Thanks anyway

The blau pump and the new deltec dc pumps and maybe a few other makes are jabao pumps with a different casing.....ive a blau 3000 feeding my biopelletts reactor a deltec 3000 in my deltec skimmer and a jabao 3000 as a spare if any break....all impeller are exactly the same and I've used all the different impeller in each different pump
Pretty sure that was the same guy I ordered off....think it took about 2 or 3 weeks to come from China

Hi Robert,
Thanks so much for the offer. My one hasn't broken at the moment, and I have ordered a new one.
If it does break before it arrives I will call you and see if you can post it down to me.
Thanks again.
