![]() Hi guys,
my swc skimmer's pump stopped working and it's because the needle wheel is splitting into 2 parts, I would like to buy a replacement needle wheel but cannot find it anywhere in Canada, anyone can help? I am not too sure about the model of the pump, cause there is no labels or anything, but I believe it's either Atman 1100 or 2500. Thanks |

![]() Phone Eshopps and ask them. I needed an Atman & they had them and parts, prices aren't cheap. Consider a Sicce instead - they have both.
I cheaper out and bought an Atman from Fishstreet and it didn't work - turned into a PITA.... H |

![]() Thanks guys, the impeller itself costs around $60 and it's too expensive for me,
should I consider a brand new skimmer instead? I would limit my budget to $250, small footprint if possible, any suggestions? Thanks |

$250 is a stretch for a brand new, half-decent skimmer. But it's enough to buy a used skimmer for most of tanks. Keep an eye out on the buy/sell forums on this board if you are not in a hurry, or posting a "looking for" ad in the forum. |

http://www.goreef.com/Bubble-Magus-C...mmer-140G.html any one know where I can find it locally in Vancouver area? any comments regarding to the skimmer selection will be appreciated, thanks. PS. It is ridiculous to buy a replacement pump for more than $60!! Last edited by Reef-Geek; 10-26-2015 at 08:36 PM. |
