Toomanymatts Posted July 25, 2022 Share Posted July 25, 2022 No wonder the pump barely worked. The internal filter was caked in sponges. Along with the inside of the returns. 2 Quote Link to comment
Nano sapiens Posted July 30, 2022 Share Posted July 30, 2022 Since each tank is different, the length of time in between pump cleanings varies. Especially if just one pump is powering the system, it's best to clean the pump a bit to soon than leave it too long. I clean my single pump every month and even then it has a few growths on the outside grills that reduce flow a bit. 2 Quote Link to comment
Toomanymatts Posted August 2, 2022 Author Share Posted August 2, 2022 Agreed. This was the first time I cleaned it since I set it up. 6 months was way to long. Quote Link to comment
