Help with pump replacement

[domination2580]

I bought a used skimmer a while back. The pump doesn't work. It is a bubble magus 220. Back from 2010. Serial number is bm 18743. It has the atman ph 4000. Was curious on the new pumps for these skimmers. They now have the eheim 1260. Any options for me?

Well, if you have the room for it, pretty much you can get any skimmer pump you want. It can lay next to the skimmer, doesn't have to go under it.

Do you think that one would work?

Yea, should work for you. Im wondering if the Atman top will screw into the new pump. That would be the only thing you'd need pieces for if it doesn't.
Someone else out there in R2R has to have gotten a new pump for the Bubble Magus, hopefully they chime in there soon.

I wonder how much of a pita it would be customizing that part

Just using pvc pipe and threaded connectors should do the trick.
