I have an octopus ext 200 skimmer. My seice pump is going bad. Any recommendations where I can get another pump for it. I'm considering going with a bubble king but I don't know where to get it or how to size it up. Do I need to get a different fitting to mount it to the skimmer?
 
Also does anyone have any experence with modding it with the bubble blaster 3000? I was thinking about an upgrade but notsure if it's worth the extra hundo.
 
The bubble blaster is hands down better then the sicce, I noticed a night and day improvement after replacing it. In most cases, you can get a new Bubble Blaster that already has all the required fittings and bolt it right up. I found Aquarium Specialty to be very helpful with the upgrade.
 
Cool thx I'll look into a.s. Coral vue finally got back to me and told me $200 with the adapter. Did you notice if the bb caused your skimmer more effeciently?
 
The BB def. made it more efficient, it pulls a good bit more air, and it always fires right up after it's turned on.
