Had a really noisy pump on a Reef Octopus skimmer at Roger's House for the past week.  I took it home tonight to give it a good scrub and found a busted impeller.  The plastic is cracked and there's some rust inside.

Would anyone know where  I can find a replacement one in Ottawa or where to find the cheapest one on-line?

was it running hot/without water for a while? I have seen that happen many times, you should contact coralvue for replacement if its under warranty, if it runs use it until  replacement comes in, they are fast shipper.

I don't believe that it ran without water.  It's in the tank at Roger's House where I go a couple times a week to help maintain the fish tank.
I'm currently chasing after the purchasing information for the skimmer.  If there's any chance it's still under warranty, I'll contact Coralvue.

The impeller still works, it just makes a lot of noise. Not the best thing at that specific location.

Thanks for the info.
