i would rethink that. the pump is nothing compared to that bubble blaster which was designed for skimmer use when other pumps were designed for moving water plus the cone is so much more effective

Look into Seaside aquatics skimmers. They are copies of a Bubble Magus, but with upgraded pumps.
Jaftica has one

I feel there's truly a lot of good skimmers out there. That said, there is no reason to buy an SWC skimmer when the owner acts like that.. What's the point? (especially because other skimmers cost the same or less, and perform better).
Here's an article that gives more detail:

It's not just that he's a "bad attitude". He is bad for the reefing hobby and we don't need news stories like this to further help those that want to shut down the industry. He's adding fuel to the fire.
As for the skimmer.. A recirculating skimmer is not really necessary in this case and will typically draw more watts than a normal pinwheel design. I think your best bet is still the SRO (Super Reef Octopus) 3000int or try the JNS line. It's much better to buy once rather than buying a few different skimmers (taken from someone who's owned about 20. :lol2:
