So i just read from a post on this forum that CSS's use Rio pumps? I've heard "horrible" stories about Rio pumps so if CSS's really use Rio's... that would be scary

Thoughts?

Coralife Super Skimmer.

As per my knowledge, only the CSS 65 uses the Rio pump, and the problems have been corrected in them. I believe the bigger -CSS 125, and 220-- skimmers use the GenX pumps.

The rio 1100 that came with my 65 model died after a few months. I would replace it with a differen't pump if you could. I'm going to try a Cap pump next on it. If you also have it in the sump then you can drill new holes and put a sedra 3500 on it.

Last I heard the 65 and 125 both come with a Rio.
The biggest one, CSS 220 comes with a different pump.
I would ditch all Rio's
