Easy to Clean The water pump is detachable and no extra tools needed for easy cleaning. Troubleshooting Instructions Why is my pump weak? The pump operates on the principle that higher lift results in lower flow rate. 480 GPH is the theoretical flow rate at zero lift; the actual output decreases with pipe resistance, lifting height. And the higher the lifting height is, the lower the flow rate will be. Why is my pump not working properly? To ensure the water pump operates properly, the following steps must be taken Submersion Requirement‌: The pump must be fully submerged in water. Debris Clearance: If the impeller is jammed by debris (e.g., fish waste, algae, gravel), causing the pump to stop working, disassemble the housing to remove obstructions and check pipe connections for kinks or blockages to resume normal operation. ‌Air Removal‌: For the first startup or after water replacement, gently shake the pump to expel any trapped air inside; air trapped in the pipe or the pump may cause "gurgling" noises and the pump failure due to airlock. Notes： 1. The inner shaft will be with a little bit of lubricant to ensure the motor is working well, If you are raising sensitive fish or aquatic plants, please use them in other tanks for a short time then move it into fish tanks. 2. Due to all the pumps need professional water testing by our manufacturer before shipment, if the water pump you received has a little water left from the testing, it is a normal phenomenon.
