Octopus pump impeller replacement

[Willistein]

Hey all, I went to clean my skimmer yesterday and noticed the pump had stopped working. Took it apart and the impeller was broken in the back. The plastic part that runs through the magnet was broken from the flange... I don't think it is repairable.

Anybody have suggestions on a replacement pump or should i just buy a new impeller for $40? It is an OTP-3000 pump. It's pretty old.

Happy New Year!

Ended up ordering one direct from Coralvue. Was $10 cheaper than buying at online stores. It is the needlewheel upgrade so it should work better than the original.
