wondering if there is a big difference between stock 3500 and the modded ones euroreef sells. mine seized up and need to replace pump on the old rs80.

Don't quote me on this, but I believe the main difference between the two pumps is the pin wheel is different for the Euroreef pump.

i wonder how much of a difference between the two?

how many people have tried the enkamesh mod?

where did u get the material from?

I believe the output/fitting is a bit different too, so you may need to remove the colar from your old one to use a non-er modded pump. I have an old dolphin pump...different case but same as the sedra3500, and replaced the pinwheel with a stock sedra one. It worked fine, though I recently did the mesh mod and it works suprisingly much better. The mesh mod and gate valve mods certainly bring my skimmer to a whole new level. You can get ekemat type mesh from premium aquatics I believe.
