Hello,
I bought a protein skimmer skimmer second hand and I'm having a hard time identifying what model skimmer it is and what type of o rings it calls for. The only label on the skimmer is reef octopus website. if needed i can attach a picture but what really separates this skimmer from the others is it has 2 octopus turbine pumps (model: otp-2000) All i need is the O-rings for both pumps and the inlet for the skimmer. I believe they are going to be metric or something odd ball.
Thank you for your time and please get back to me
sincerely,
Ron Sheppard

Can you please tell me if the OTP pump has the large gray output adapter or does it have a small black adapter?

Ok im not 100% certain what your asking but, it has a small black adapter on the suction side then a gray elbow with a venture valve and then to the skimmer. but on the output side of the pump it goes straight to a gray union. The only adapter i see is on the bottom suction of the pump.
Thank you for you help sir

Please remove the OTP pump and provide me a picture of the pump. I will be able to tell which pump you have.

Thank you sir for all your help and the time you put into researching my protein skimmer. i found a bunch of o-rings at a small feed store and they were the right size.

Thanks again for your time and have a great day.
