The pump on my internal filter has suddenly humming fairly loudly since did a water change, I can't figure out why so I have ordered a new one, can the noise stress my fish????
 
I working on fixing mine I will post up some pictures soon. I think it may help.
 
Have you taken the pump apart and cleaned it out?

Often the mag drive pumps get algae and other stuff gooped up around the magnet/impeller and can cause the pump to get noisy and or stop.
