    Just noticed the pump is not working on my juwel tank. Anyone got a pump 600 that they are not using?

    Take it apart and give it a good clean as sometimes they just get blocked with gunk.

    It looks like it is in the sealed unit that has the issue. There boys I can get to are clean and fine

    Can you pull out the impeller and clean it and clean the impeller housing with a wet cotton bud or similar. Might be no harm looking at an external pump of a recognized brand.

    Impeller can come out and be cleaned. No sign of it doing though. Might look at other filter systems

    Not a great quality brand, more likely to fail you again if you opt for the same one. Look to Fluval for a more solid filter, it'll do your tank better in the long run.
