The picture of the site is what I need the bottom is what I got just wondering what pump I’d actually need I’ll get pics of the skimmer when I get home but it looks like the pump I got is made to go on the outside of the skimmer and the one on the site goes on the inside of the skimmer body and it looks like it is the identical one that I have that’s blown. My skimmer motor sits in the skimmer body. Both are labeled aq1800s but the new one is way bigger then the original unit. 20250617_054253.png

Do you have a side by side of old and new? Might explain what’s what.
