ati bubble master protein skimmer

[el rookie]

She was a beast, but my sump ran dry overnight and damaged the sicce pump. Either needs new impeller or whole new pump. The simple construction allows for any pump of your choice to be hooked up. Few nicks and scratches but nothing out of the ordinary. 230 shipped.

which model skimmer is this? what sicce pump was on it that failed?

I use the 160. Awesome skimmers. GLWS

Oh sorry guys. Its the bubble master 200 and the pump is psk2500.

You can get the sicce psk 1000 pump for this skimmer. Much better pump than the psk 2500.

I might give that a try if I end up keeping it. My swc isn't coming close to the skimmate this little monster was making.

I switched out the pair of psk 2500's on my BM 250 for a pair of the psk 1000's.

What is the largest size tank this will be good for?

Its rated for 250.

My RO nw150 is rated to 180g and in a 125g tank. However, I'm in the middle of upgrading to a 180g with a 55g sump. My money is super tight atm due to all tge extra costs. I am wondering if the RO pump or even one of my mag 5 or 7 pumps will work with this skimmer efficiently?

The way they built the intake into the main body it allows for almost any pump. As long as the pump has a needle wheel of course.

Glenn and I talked it over and as much as I'd love to take it off your hands I'm going to have to pass. Just not enough $ in the budget ATM. Sorry.

No worries. Thanks for the interest. Good luck with the new set up :)

To add a psk -1000 to this setup you need a new bubble plate/venturi etc. I have this stuff for sale if anyone is interested

No you don't. I used all the old pieces off the psk 2500's.

Only the pump.

What about the venturi they are different sizes for sure.
