Need new skimmer pump

I have a SWC extreme 200. The pump has finally quit so I'm looking for a replacement. Everything I google turns up old posts. Hoping one of you guys can suggest something.
 
I have the same skimmer, replaced the psk-2500 with PSK-1000. I don't know if the psk-2500 is still available, but the psk-1000 is a better pump.

The psk-1000 has a male outlet vs the female on psk-2500. You need to replace half of the existing union on the skimmer so get one of these and replace the male part of the existing union with the female part of this one:

Or you can use a 3/4 FNPT coupling but the pump will stick out another 2 inches. Either way will work though.

I don't think the new PSK-100 comes with the venturi, but the one you have now will work just pull it off the old pump and put it on the new one.
 
I have a couple of near new PSK-2500 pumps that I removed from my skimmer. They have the venturis and several different wheels. PM me if you are interested in one.
 
I went with tunze aerofoamer to replace one of the psk 600 on a 250 model. It is a direct fit no mod required. Major improvement and like getting a new skimmer
