I have three Diablo DC 10500, I have had good luck with them all. I see they are discontinued and a newer pump is out. Why did they replace the old version? I had no problems with any of mine. I saw you were selling them for $210 wholesale price, is that still available? Why does the new version not come with the adapters as the old came with? Will the adapters from the old style fit the new pump. Thanks

The smaller version of the DC pumps has been replaced by the newer pump. The larger version (DC10500) has not been replaced nor retired, we are still using the same pump.

Hi Stephen,

We do have a larger RODC pump in the works but it is still several months away from being available.

We still have a few of the DC-10500's in stock and since it has been discontinued, I can sell it to you for wholesale cost which would be $210.00. Let me know if you'd like to order one.

Thanks,
Lindsey

Hi Milton,

We are going to replace the Diablo DC-10500 with the RODC-10500 and had thought it was going to be much sooner than it's actually going to be so I had gotten the ok from the boss to sell it to Stephen at a discounted price, but since then, we found out from Reef Octopus that they are focusing on a smaller RODC pump first and will start on the RODC-10500 a little later and it won't be ready till sometime after the first of the year. When we found out about this, we ordered 100 more pumps to keep in stock and will no longer be discounting them. Stephen just happened to get real lucky. Sorry for the mix up.

Thanks,
Lindsey

Hi Robin,

Unfortunately Reef Octopus still has not completed the RODC-10500 and we do not have an ETA of when they will be available yet. If you need a pump to replace the DC-10500 and are unable to wait until it becomes available, we have 2 options... You could go with the smaller RODC-5500 if you want to stay with the DC pump, or you could go with a Water Blaster 10000 if you'd be ok with an AC pump. Sorry for the inconvenience.
