its not the BK that has the problem its Vertex wont warranty their pumps now, cause they don't have anything to back it up with.
SK I just ordered a Vertex Alpha, so what does a guy do now for warranty?

Proline and Royal exclusive were merged together to make the great vertex body and Red Dragon pumps

I would want to say until I hear a answer from Jeremy that you would be **** out of luck. but that is my opinion If they are not going to warrant the pumps. due to a mis hap in the company. not to worry if for some reason that your pumps goes belly up and you can't get a replacement.

you can always use a Bubble Blaster pump as a back up. they are pretty much the same pump in certain area's now im now saying they are exactly the same but you can hook them up as u would with the RD pump.


folks have been doing this on RC for a while now.

Are you saying that proline is no longer supporting vertex? Or just the skimmers with Rd pumps are not supported?

Little confused here

I'm waiting to hear back also. If it's true, that's really unfortunate for the people that just bought or need warranty. Like you said you can use a replacement but a person shouldn't have to do that. Thx SK, let us know what you find out.

It should be known that RE and Vertex are NOT the same company.

nor are vertex and proline. vertex is their own seperate entity... they used re pumps. proline distributed both vertex and re.
