Sicce pump for Vortex calcium reactor
Can anybody suggest a solution to replace the custom Sicce 1.5 pump for the Vertex calcium reactors? My pump went out and now I am stuck.

Can you use an eheim 1048 pump? That is what Geo used to use and as well as Koarllin still uses.

I've got the same reactor & pump. It might be hard to find a direct replacement. Is the motor bad or is it just an impeller?

I have been struggling with this for 4 weeks meaning my Ca reactor has been offline for that long. Vertex customer service is nonexistent. I wish I had known that when I was buying a $400 piece of equipment. So disappointing.
