The Tech Den Posted March 1, 2014 Report Share Posted March 1, 2014 If you do not have any luck - let me know - will have to do a fluval order in the next week or two and can get some in for you. If you can just check your part number to make sure A20232. Looks like they are in stock at the supplier at the moment too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

th3f0rg0t3n Posted March 1, 2014 Author Report Share Posted March 1, 2014 i like the idea of the magnet suction caps thanks FJ & ben but i think for simplicity i would rather try obtain the genuine fluval intake strainer suction caps, i dont usually have any problems with any of my existing fx5 suction cups they hold nice and tight and do not come loose easily !! guess it wont matter a whole heap once i score my new FREE fx6 in the mail from ben, im still in a state of shock of actually winning something greater than a meat tray haha!
