I have a 9005 that I got a great deal on used ($180 with the sump kit). Anyway, I like it but I really want more performance. Plus I will be upgrading tanks yet again soon when I move, so I'll need a bigger skimmer. I could purchase a 9010, or I could just upgrade my 9005 to a 10. So I did some searching on the Tunze site and found these parts. I just want to make sure this is what I need.
Motor block 9010.015 for $92.43
Impeller 0235.120 for $9.02
Skimmer cup 0220.140 for $49.72
According to what I researched the other pump parts (magnet, volute, venturi, those clip things) and the cup lid are the same between the 9010 and the 9005. So if I order the things I listed above, I have a 9010, right?
And yea I know the total cost of my used 9005 plus that stuff puts me slightly over the cost of a 9010 new, but I already have the 9005 so I have no choice (well besides selling the 9005 and buying a new 9010).
