pump to skimmer dead, where to find replacement?

I have a Euroreef ES-4 and the dolphin pump attached to it is near end of life. It doesn't start up right away, sometimes shuts off, and just isn't holding up anymore.

Is dolphin a good brand? Where can I find a replacement and what are some good brands?

I don't have a clue on the Dolphins. Mine uses a sedra 9000.

Must be the moon. Our skimmer pump went today too. Iwaki 40 for us. What a drag.
 
I have the CS8-2 with a Sedra 5000. Just replaced mine but i think it went bad because it sat a long time without running. The magnet was siezed in the pump. Got mine from Marine Depot but had to modify it to fit. Seems Euro Reef changes the outlet size
 
I can send dolphin my old pump and they will overhaul it? I'll call them to see if they can do so for me and for how much. If they can't...yours it is.
