Hydra Aquatics Twist Water Flow Accelerators not rotating

[unknown]

I'm running a Mag 5 with 3ft of head pressure and I can't get the rotating nozzles to continually rotate. Has anyone ever had this problem before?

Hi,
Yes, saltwater is so corrosive that it gets gritty and the little nozzle can't rotate...a good soak in vinegar will help it move like new again. Depending on how gritty and frozen it is...you may have to soak overnight or a few days in a bucket.

Is it new or has it been running for a while?

both the pump and the nozzles are brand new. I was thinking that the flow might be to low to rotate the 2 of them off of the Y connection.

Your probably right. Not enough water pressure to make it rotate. if you didn't install a ball valve on either line, it would have been easy to cut one side off to see if it would have rotated it.

So I upgraded to a mag 9.5 and it's all 3/4 plumbing. More pressure and more volume did the trick. Thanks guys
