Pump problems or something else?

Oh yay! Easy fix and a team effort! Can't wait to see the new bog in place!

So, the o-ring was missing and it was sucking in some air!
Nice easy fix!
Great ending!

Exactly ! I can't quite express what a relief it was.......I can't believe I didn't know ....but now I do!

Well, the darn pump has died....it's most definitely dead as a door knob ! I need a 2000 GPH for the Sand & Gravel filter, so bought my first Laguna, it's supposed to arrive on Sat.

In the mean time I'm performing water changes, running a smaller pump to recirculate water and agitate the surface. My waterfall and aerator are both still running, just not the pump feeding the filter

I'm not feeding them till I get the filter back online, it's hard when they look at me with their sweet fishy eyes !

I KNOW! I'll tell my husband - "you go! I can't bear to have them look at me with that look on their little faces!" haha!

I threw in a bunch of duckweed yesterday for my poor starving little beggars. Figured the veggie stuff was a less poop maker perhaps? Today it is almost all gone! My pond is right by the front door so you can picture that in your mind. Gaping little mouths all of them squished to the edge close to me in a huge hog pile like they are starving to death
Makes me feel so guilty

I call them genetically modified eyes....................they beg with them.
