Hi Gary . Go to Mike T's www.capecodtackle.com/ he has the whole unit including the tank for $135. Thats the best price I've seen. He also sells the recirculating pump alone if you think your tank is OK. The big thing is that is just recirculates the water and mixes in air through an air tube. Because it doesn't have to pump the water up above the surface , it can pump a lot of water around. You adjust a valve to get a very fine mix of the air from the air tube. Like Champagne bubbles. You get about ten times more air in there and the battery lasts longer since the pump isn't working hard to raise the water above the tank surface. There's a little filter around the pump you can pull off and cleanperiodically. If you don't overload it or let the filter clog with scales , they should stay alive as long as the battery is charged. For a few days , you'll need to take out some of the pissy water and add some fresh every now and then.
