This is a great skimmer, I'm simply a little tied of messing with the impellers and upgraded to a Bubble King. If you can't afford a BK the BM is probably one of the best (IMO).

I agree completely. I use this skimmer and love it but hate the pumps. I had one replaced, and they both have troubles restarting when the power goes out and occasionally need to be poke restarted as well.

The skimming in this price range is 2nd to none. If you don't want to worry about making sure the pumps are working spend a lot more and get a BK, otherwise you can't beat the BM 250.

I'm open to offers but would like to sell under the condition the pumps may require replacing. I'm not sure, I couldn't seem to get them working with my DIY mesh work as stated above.
