Sorry for digging up an old thread, but nobody has pointed out that this would be a very bad idea. That nipple thing is not there for water flow or filtering. It supports one end of the ceramic shaft that the magnet and impeller ride on. If you were to cut it off, the shaft would have nothing to ride on and the pump would be worthless at best.
