How do you get at the pump in this skimmer? It looks like you have to reach to the bottom of the skimmer and pull the pump up through the neck of the skimmer?

Where can i order this skimmer? I need another skimmer for my 90g seahorse tank im planning..so the plan is to use my ER 135 for the Seahorse tank and the BM for my 90g reef. The one thing im concerned about is exactly what untamed questioned... how the heck do you get the pump out.. i mean i like that is it beneath the skimmer and everything ..saves some space but it must be a pain trying to get it out???

On the base is made of of 2 parts. There are 4 plastic screws that hold the 2 parts together. The base (with pump attached) detaches after the screws are removed.

My skimmer has been running very well for a few months now and I have not experienced any problems. I am very satisfied with the production of skim and secondly how quiet it runs.
