RS-180 Skimmer Pump replacement options, I need your advice.

[j83]

rjengen, my pump just failed on my Vertex 180. I've been reading that the bb3000 works well with it, however, I have the first generation of these skimmers, any chance you know if it will work? What gen is yours on?

Thanks,

Jay

Not economical but if you have one on your shelf, the Eheim 1262 is a by far better pump for that skimmer.
I used the sedra and then the sedra with mesh mod.
I think got a Eheim and its better then it ever was with the sedra, mind u the eheim is over 100$ and new impellers are 80 plus shipping
(btw mine took 3 weeks us post)
I have a old needle wheel with the mesh mod if u want for the sedra for ummmm..... oh lets say shipping costs.
