I have an Excalibur skimmer & I think the RIO is an 800. The pump is connected to the skimmer with a piece of  1/2" vinyl tubing, so the connection should be easy if there is a similar pump.

Ben
When these pumps burned up, did any of them cause a problem or poison anything in your tank?
 
All
My skimmer came with a Rio rejuvenation venturi pump installed & all this bad press is making me nervous! Does anyone know of a replacement venturi pump?
 
TIA
Chris

I have used rio's before because they were pretty inexpensive.  This was before I was on this list.  In all I have used 4 rio 2500, 2 rio rio 2100, and 4 rio 180,  All but 1 ended up leaking into the motor and ended up burning out.  In that same time frame I have had a mag 350 that has run perfectly for me for about 6 years now.  Stay away from the rio.  I really like the mag pumps for a submersible pump.  I use 2 mag 7's for my main tank and the mag 350 pumps into my refugium.
