That thing is called a "Viquarium". They are no longer manufactured. You might try finding a parts on eBay. It also might be possible to use some other kind of small submersible pump to pump the water to the top of the waterfall.

If you cut a hole in the side of the pump chamber you can get a small Aquaclear powerhead in there. The hole in the side is for the intake funnel. It will not look just like the original but should keep it functional if that is your goal.
