Crap my skimmer died

In the 58g my skimmer toasted, biggest issue is it's dumping water out the back of the sump now cause it cant flow as fast as it could when it was working for some reason, guess since the drain hooks straight to an intake on the skimmer.

Anyone know anything about "marineland skimmers" one of the LFS' has one in a 22g sump thats the only one in town I can find that isnt made for like a 300g tank and I really dont think it'll be safe to wait for 2-3 days for one to come in

 

How much water is in the sump to allow it to run over the back ? Is the pump running or not ? Could be just a jammed impeller ?

 

Pump is a brand new mag 9.5 (950gph)

It's working fine, i ended up turning the ball valve on the pump to slow down it's return to the top and that in turn slowed the water coming back down to the sump, I wish I'd have taken a pic of the old sump before i threw it off the 2nd floor into the dumpster


We have a brand new sump and coralife skimmer in place now, this is actually kind of a blessing in disguise cause i really hated that old sump, + now i have a new mag pump, new skimmer, new sump, new ph's and a full credit card, all thats left is the old jager heater lol

 

Are you trying to use a Mag 9 to feed a Marine Land sea-clone skimmer ? Oh I see the deal now hell just order a skimmer its O.K for one to not have a skimmer Hell I don't put a skimmer on any new system for up to six months myself Youd odn't want a seaclone its juts q step above worthless I have one now in the junk bucket I'll take 15.00 for you need a pump. The pump maybe be there in the bucket also ?

I ended up going with this skimmer and a custom built sump, one of our LFS' started manufacturing their own sumps to help with costs, so for about $470 bucks it has a whole new sump, pump and skimmer
