My filter for my tank is not sucking in water, I'm pretty sure its spinning the impeler but I'm not sure. Its a Marineland, Penguin 200 Bio-Wheel Power Filter.

thras said:Might be a little late but I have experience with these filters I would try piling the impeller out and take a q tip or 5 and clean out the inside where the magnet gos it gets gunk in it sometimes and clean the impeller shaft then put a little bit of water in and plug it in after u install just the impeller and see if it's spinning if it is put it back together and prime the filter then stick the media back in
