Hey guys,
I've got one of these skimmers in a sump for a 250g tank at work, but the
Rio 2100 gave in. Any suggestions for a different pump or should I simply
replace it with another rio?
TIA
John.

Get a Mag pump instead. Reliable and easy to clean. Just match the GPH between
your Rio 2100 and the new Mag.

I don't think it would be possible to get the mag pump working
effectively on your turbofloter, either get the aquabee pump that is
sold as a replacement pump, or get another RIO. IF you get another rio
make sure you move your needlewheel impeller over to the new pump also.
