Well, if you read my earlier posts today, I was having trouble deciding if Maxijets would be quieter than the Aquaclear I had on my Wavemaster Pro. I broke down and bought 3 new Maxijet 600's (I have a 29 gallon tank) today and found that while they were a little quieter, they still "clicked" a lot when the wavemaker turned them on and off.
I tried the trick of supergluing the impeller to the magnet but it didn't work very well. What ended up working is stuff a little piece of foam (I used the stuff they put around outdoor lines going to an air conditioner condenser) in the two spaces between the magnet and impeller and - poof - the clicking is gone.
Just thought I'd share the info for anyone looking for a similar fix.
