I've been gathering up extra parts to set up a 32 Gallon community tank and I got out my old Fluval 203 that I got a long time ago and there's a pretty big crack in the side of the filter case. Everything else on the filter works fine but I can't find any replacement parts for the filter case. I found the part I need here, but I can't find any way to order it directly from Hagen. Is there any place where I can order that part?
 
Have you considered super glue? I'm pretty sure that the filter casing should be easily bonded with either a safe epoxy, silicone, or super glue. You could certainly try this first, anyway.

Yeah, I'll definitely try this if I can't find a replacement, but the crack is rather large and I don't know how long or how well it would hold with silicone or epoxy. It would probably be better to get a new one.

Sorry this is a bit late, but I just ordered some replacement filter parts from AMADS Superstore - www.amads.com. They had a replacement main body for my Fluval 404 around $30 along with a host of other filter parts. Pretty good service shipping as well. You might try them for the fluval 203. :)
