I’m minimax reactor replacement pump

[Derrick0580]

Has anyone found a replacement pump that is a direct bolt on for this particular reactor? I received one for free but discovered the pump is shot. Searched forum and google but unable to find a definitive answer as to what mini pump I can use as a direct replacement.

Just the unreliable ones from IM.

Can’t even find one if these in stock. I won’t be running the reactor all the time, just periodic gfo or carbon.

The only place I've found those is either directly from IM (several month wait typically) or a LFS that has one kicking around (rare).

Would it be possible to get just a similar gph pump and use tubing to connect the two? Can either use zip ties to cinch it down to the connection or dip in boiling water to stretch it over the connection if they aren’t the same size?
