Sedra 5000 is the normal for a g3. If it was mine, I would put a T pvc on the output inside the skimmer, mesh mod it, and post pictures of the skimmate to make people who bought Deltec's and Bubble Kings jealous.

The pump is way too powerful for it.

Ignore MrPike, all of the fiddling and modifications are not necessary. The G-3 comes with the Sedra 5000. The 9000 may be overpowered to the point of reduced skimmate.
Removing the needle wheel is easy. The front part just twists off(no screws). The needle wheel/magnet slides out. That simple.

I'm not sure if it is the same needle wheel. I would check.

Mr. Pike, meshwheels do rock. The Dwyer's proved that.
I think he was just trying to help the OP avoid confusion.
