LF New skimmer pump to replace Ehiem 1260

[ledvu12]

It's hard to find parts to this pump. I'm looking to replace with a different brand.
Any recommendations?

Thanks

what skimmer do you have? I have a 2 month old Bubble blaster HY-2000S for $175. lmk

I have an old Skool H&S skimmer. Thanks for your kindness offer. That's a good deal but I need some bigger. I think I might find a replacement Eheim pump for it.
Thanks again,

Which model h&s? How big your tank?

It's h&s 200. It's about 250 gallon total. Reef dynamics has the needle wheel for $150 bucks and it's currently unavailable due to port workers on strike last month.
I welded it back with JB welder and it works for now. It's basically on life support.
I'm thinking to swap out the eheim with sicce 1000 pump since it has a same 3/4 threads. Not sure how well it performs.
