Koralia Powerhead Problem

[Chris_C]

Can somebody explain how to open up the powerheads? i have a Koralia 2 and cant seem to get the cage open. Dont want to break it being heavy handed. I just need to replace the shaft. Help would be much appreciated

It twists sidewards in the middle, if that makes sense!!

I was trying that yesterday with no success. Just tried it now after leaving it to dry out and success sorry to clutter the forum Seffie.

This is not clutter my friend, I love these type of posts, shows I am not the only one who has problems with such things

I find the coralline tends to "seal" them together... try soaking it in vinegar or a cleaner made for powerheads and you should be able to get it open

Thanks Nemo will keep it in mind for future reference. Managed to get it open once it had dried out.
