Aqua One Ocellaris 400 Impeller Set 143i
Aqua One 143i Impeller set for the Ocellaris 400 external filters
A complete new Aqua One 143i Impeller set for the Ocellaris 400 external filters. The impeller comes complete with ceramic shaft and takes seconds to install. Fit a new 143i impeller every year or so to ensure continuous performance.
Function
The 143i Impeller is the only moving part in an Aqua One Ocellaris 400 external canister filter. It spins at high speed drawing water through the filter and returning it to your aquarium. Impellers spin 24 hours per day, seven days per week so wear is inevitable.
Effect on Flow Rate
The Aqua One Ocellaris 400 is completely dependent on the impeller for water flow. A worn impeller may reduce flow efficiency over time, affecting filtration performance.

Installed the 143i impeller in my Ocellaris 400 filter last month. It fits perfectly and the ceramic shaft feels very solid. The installation took less than two minutes. My filter flow has returned to normal after a few months of reduced performance.

After replacing the old impeller, I noticed a noticeable improvement in water flow. The filter runs smoothly now and doesn’t make any unusual noise. Easy to install and fits securely.

This impeller set is exactly what I needed. The ceramic shaft is strong and the impeller spins quietly. I’ve had my Ocellaris 400 for over two years and this was the first time I replaced the impeller. Performance is back to factory levels.
