    Unhappy water fall stop putting out water...

    waterfall in my tank just stop putting out water(only 6 months old, exo terra flo 200). the pump still makes regular noise and vibration when connect. i believe something jammed it. any suggestion on how to clean it without breaking the whole tank down?(all wire, tube are sealed in the background pump itself is under the falsebottom)
    i will go find some thin wire to poke it from the open end but not sure if it's going to work. or if there is anyway to suck it out(not with my mouth!)

    Hi, good it worked for you. Generally when you build water feature, pump is being made accessible for maintenance for that exact reason. Pump will need cleaning or replacing, tubes will need cleaning too.
