Hi Guys,
I purchases an used Sedra KSP-5000 pump with vertex IN skimmer. It has been running over 3 months.
My main issue is that I am not almost no skim mate. The pump does not seem to be making nearly enough micro bubbles.
I have put the skimmer at different Heights, turned water levels up. I have also cleaned the pump to the best of my ability and do not feel like the impeller has swelling. However I cannot tell.
I have also noticed that the pump will not kick on unless I blow into the Venturi.
Do you guys think it is worth 50 bucks to replace the impeller? Or should I just get a new skimmer?
Thanks in advance!
