Wouldn't this issue have come up with the wavebox you ordered, Brian? Or were they able to set you up with 110V pumps?

The wavebox pump is 24v and the controller will handle 220v or 110v I just swapped the power cord with one from an old PC cuz it had a wacky 220v prong.
They say they will adjust the skimmer price without a pump, I should have asked them how much.

Looking at the bubble magus I dont think that they are that great. IMe the only thing that makes the skimmer is the Pump depending on what pump and impeller too MESH seems to kick butt. I love my Bubble master 250 its great pulls huge amounts of skimmate, however i bought it used from my friend on Reef Central. the Sicce pump are great. but are starting to make funny sounds if the power goes off the pumps will just flicker and flicker makes a gringing noise. i bought my shafts for them. The inside of the motor isn't chewed up the impellars are seem to be ok . for being 2 years old this xmas. I may just order them online for 130 ea US and keep the skimmer...
