air extract nipple options

I have a CS150. The plastic nipple on the top is loose and it gets clogged with debris and algea. Any suggestions or options? I have found the problem twice when the AquaLifter made alot of noise and damaged it.

If the air nipple is loose, you can reseal it with super glue gel around the diameter of the nipple.

If you have a lot of particulate matter getting into the overflow, you may want to hook up the suction filter made for the Aqua Lifter. This will trap the detritus before reaching the pump to keep it cleaner longer.
