Maxi-Jet 900 part... lost!

I lost the cone and protective cover that keeps the fish from getting sucked into the intake (I was swapping my POS acrylic tank out for a glass one, and somewhere during the broughaha the cone & cover got lost... I suspect in the sand bed).

ANYWAY - before I can add fish I must get a new cone & cover - anybody know somebody who sells parts for Marineland powerheads?

I wouldn't worry about it, a healthy fish is not going to get sucked into an unmodded maxi-jet 900.

I used to have some Maxijets that were missing that part too; no fish ever got sucked in it, but tons of snails did.

I actually found a source - sometimes you can tell I'm edumucated... I went to Marineland.com - they had a "contact us" link - and they responded. Shipping the $3 part out with $5 shipping - not bad!
