My skimmer has been going stupid the last week or so, I cleaned it out today to find that the impeller magnet has cracked, so I need a replacement. I have found a few, but all listed as discontinued...advice?

If you need a skimmer in the meantime, you can borrow my spare SWC. It is only rated up to 90 gallons, but hey if you're in a pinch its better than nothing.
Let me know if you want to come pick it up, you can just bring it back to me later. (frag fest in april is fine)

Thank you for the offer. I don't really have a way to get it here, if I did, I would grab up that copperband to
. The one I am running is working...for now. I got one of my bills postponed, so I will be ordering a replacement impeller today.Any idea how to contact them. I ordered one Sunday, money still has not come out and still has not shipped and not heard back from 'contact us'
Or can anyone else hook me up with a good price...
I have a feeling it is due to my visa debit...it isnt a regular visa...

If SUM falls through, I'd call Flavio at Advanced Reef Aquatics, He sells a ton of Vertex, I think he knows them personally
Tried. He said he has not had any in over a year :/

They are a "contact authorized dealer" but I used their contact us anyways. :/ It is a killer skimmer and would like to get it going again. The other option it to joy get a DC pump. That would be a site eh? Vertex skimmer and Jebao DC skimmer pump lol

If you find a source for the original Resun impellers make sure you post it...
Just a matter of time before I need one. I had been assuming that I would have to go bubble blaster when mine died.

Hey Mark, ask Flavio tell him you are a friend of mine, I know him quite well, or just call them. Worth a try.
