The pump on my euroreef skimmer has gone bad. The original pump is a Sedra brand. Does anyone know of other pump/s that will fit this skimmer? Can Sedra pumps be purchased anywhere along the wasatch front?
It could be your impeller assembly- impeller magnetic rotor shafts that corrode and swell can prevent the pump from working properly- it happened on the Sedra that powers my Euroreef. You can usually tell it's the impeller shaft if it's hard to get started, and also if you see a bulging part of the magnet area of the shaft.
Have you tried cleaning it by running it for 12 hours in 1 part distilled vinegar to 3 parts RO water? I got that from the manual. I just did it on mine last week and it is running fine again.
