HELP!

[ezbennie]

If anyone can please help I would be of great appreciation!

I hae a great little size 6 Nano reef. I was gone over the weekend, and when I came back there isn't any filteration going on! The pump doesn't seem to be spiting anything out and nothing is getting sucked into the filter. Any ideas? THANKS!

most filters have removable impellers in the pump take it out and clean it then try the filter to see if it works

Welcome ezbennie to our Forum!

I might also consider reaming the inside of the pump infrequently with a pipe cleaner, a good stiff bristly one. Taking it apart is the most thorough way to clean it, but this weekly reaming is a nice way to maintain it over the course of the pumping month...a strange thing I can't figure out is my powerhead has lost strength over time even with a clean impeller...it's only 5 mos old and just doesn't move the water like it once did set on high. Might get a new one soon

Have fun chatting
