Replacing a skimmer pump.

I have an RLSS skimmer which has a Waveline DC 3000 pump, would it be a problem if I replaced it with a Waveline DC 6000 pump? or should I just buy a new skimmer? I could keep the older skimmer as a back up as in the military I learned that 2 is 1 lol.

If you are replacing a pump try to match it as closely as possible or the skimmer may not function properly.

I'm not sure if the Jebao skimmer pumps will fit but is probably an option worth exploring.
