Vertex Omega 150 urgent help!

[Andre.nicolau]

Hello guys!

My skimmer's impeller has broken. I can't use my skimmer anymore and I need a new impeller ASAP. The thing is, I live in Brazil and there is not even one seller here for this thing. Do you guys know anyone that sells is and can ship it to Brazil??

thank you very much!

No need to panic as your tank will be fine for sometime without a Skimmer, so maybe contact Vertex directly through email. They should refer you to a source or even may ship one directly to you.

Cheers, Todd

Old thread, but I'm adding information as I know several people are searching for impeller replacements for the Vertex Omega 150 (since Vertex is out of business).

I was told from a Sicce USA representative that the Sicce PSK 1000 impeller would work as a replacement impeller for the Vertex Omega 150 skimmer. I purchased the part today and can confirm it fits but have not had a chance to run the pump yet. Note, the PSK 1000 design regarding the wheel part is different than the original impeller but that is basically just a way to break up air into small bubbles (and I suspect the newer design my be better than the older impeller design in that regards).
