BeasileyBub Posted October 31, 2015 Share Posted October 31, 2015 The pump on mine is leaking voltage into the tank. Big bummer. I'm not at home and will post the size pump of the pump and the system it's on. I know a skimmer just sold on here but if anyone has a reef octopus or similar quality skimmer that's not excessively old I'd love to see what you have! 253-753-4552 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arsonmfg Posted October 31, 2015 Share Posted October 31, 2015 Depending on which skimmer and pump you have I might have a pump for you... I've got a spare RO skimmer that I'll be using again eventually but more than likely I'll convert it to DC like my current one. Shoot me a text with what pump you have.

BeasileyBub Posted October 31, 2015 Author Share Posted October 31, 2015 Mine is only a 93 gaL so that's a bit overkill. It's super nice though! Thabks Jorge!Idk how big your tank is!

kattz Posted November 1, 2015 Share Posted November 1, 2015 I am waiting on a used Lifereef to show up. I have a Octopus Diablo 160 with a Sicce pump that has been flawless other than the crazing of the cup. I would be happy to make you a nice deal on this unit if your search turns up fruitless, but I will be in TX until just before Thanksgiving and unable to ship. Of course, if you have an SPS tank and it's larger than 90g, this skimmer is not a good one for you. I usually size the skimmer for a capacity of 120-150% of the system volume as a minimum for SPS.

kattz Posted November 1, 2015 Share Posted November 1, 2015 BTW, this skimmer is 6 years old... Kevin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BeasileyBub Posted November 1, 2015 Author Share Posted November 1, 2015 Six years is a little old for a skimmer pump to be considered reliable. Although I'm looking for used in still looking for something that is going to run a decent amount of time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kattz Posted November 1, 2015 Share Posted November 1, 2015 While I can understand your concern, I doubt this pump will fail in the next ten years. Good pump. Happy hunting! Best, Kevin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BeasileyBub Posted November 9, 2015 Author Share Posted November 9, 2015 You can close this. I bought a new R.O. from marine depot, classic 152-S. It's working really well! It's going to be nice on the new tank I'm switching over to! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
