Reeflo Hammerhead Hybrid Pump

OK...stupid question of the day...

I just picked up a Reeflo Hammerhead Hybrid pump for my system (replacing my old Sequence that has run its last race). The pump can be configured as a Barracuda or a Hammerhead (the Hammerhead being the more powerful configuration) by changing the impeller.

OK...the stupid question...

The pump came with an extra impeller...but no directions! I've looked at the impeller from all angles and no indication which one it is. How do you tell which impeller is for which configuration? Would love to figure this out without unnecessarily pulling the pump apart. Is the Hammerhead configuration just a bigger impeller?

Any informed guidance would be useful. Thanks in advance,

Mark

yes, the Hammerhead impeller has wider slots for more flow

Thanks so much. Now that I think about it, makes a lot of sense...
