MarineLandPRIM350B 350b Impeller Assembly Penguin Filter Parts for Aquarium

Drastic reduction of noise, but way to expensive
Works like a charm, very quiet compare to the old one, but it's too expensive for what it is. I bought this and the bearings and I wonder if I should not have just bought a new filter all together...

Fit my Filter perfectly
These are color coded, look at the color of your impeller and order according to the color of the one in your aquarium filter. Mine was making a ton of noise and when i replaced the impeller it is now as quiet as a mouse.

Makes your filtration system quiet again.
Have you been running your Penguin 350 filtration for several years and it's now making grinding noises? Purchase this replacement, or two. It's quite costly, but there aren't any alternatives.

These both save and cause insanity.
So when installed, these are whisper quiet. It's great. You are happy with your purchase. Slowly they deteriorate (the metal post gets scoured) and you dont notice the noise... until one day your sitting there and you notice it. And then it is the only thing you can hear, this horrible grinding sound straight out of hell's torture chamber. You go to the other room and shut the door. You can still hear it. You contemplate murder of your fish by way of no filtration while the next baggy with a life saving purple impeller comes. When it arrives, you are praising it as it is the most amazing thing when installed... peace... quiet... until this one inevitably becomes possessed and starts to cause insanity. Then the cycle continues to repeat. Order 3 or 4, save yourself some sanity.

Impellers cost 50% of the whole filter
I would give this a higher rating if the cost for this part wasn't 50% of the cost of the whole filter. Moreover, I have to replace these on all my filters 3 times a year on average to quiet them down. I've tried everything I can to make them last longer but once the magnet cylinder is scored, even in a single place, as little as .003" deep, the filter is too loud to use. Pop in a new impeller, boom - silence for about 3 more months...I know I should switch to another brand but I have been using these filters since 1998. I can live with poor engineering design, just wish the price was less or could be purchased in bulk for a discount.
