Replacement for skimmer pump

[ruppertb]

Hello I have a reef octopus xp-2000sss which uses a bubble blaster hy2000s. The pump has crapped out and I can’t really see spending 250$ on a new pump.
Anyone have any alternative pumps that could work. A jeabo or other dc pump or any other suggestions. Thanks in advance.

I have a Nyos 160 I'd also like to see if there's a DC pump I could switch out. I'm not sure if the DIY Tag will work.

On Aquatop's website you can buy a decent skimmer pump with a venturi nozzle. I'm pretty sure if was a replacement pump for their skimmer, but it worked with mine. I used it on my previous skimmer after the original broke and it was great for only $24!

If it's this one Not sure it would work for me but might for OP. But ***'s sold out right now.

It was this one (link), but it's out of stock right now. Maybe call them and see if they have any extras.
