Nope, the manuel is trash and google sucks. I search images and all I got was images of the box...

And yah, the impeller's design is different from the ones normally found in canisters. The large magnetic bar attached there should have gave it away


Just incase you disn't figure this out yet. The Smaller one goes on "Arrow B" (back plate of the impeller) to seal Impeller to "Arrow C". The Larger Goes on "Arrow D" to Seal the Motor Assembly to the Canister or "Arrow A".


Make sense?

Ok i just receive the new o rings, gonna test this configaration. Fingers cross. Im gonna fill it up with water and keep an eye on it until tomorrow. I don't trust the FX5
 
Ok it has been about 2 hours since I filled up the empty canister with tap water. Still no leaks :) :)

Im gonna set it back up now. Hopefully it wouldn't leak again (waking up to see your legs and bed soaked in aquarium water is not cool...)

Thanks for all the advice (for now :ROFL:)
