Hoody Posted November 26, 2008 Report Share Posted November 26, 2008 I've got some fry in a Aqua one AR380 and unfortunatly some got sucked up the filter intake so I decided to place a stocking over it. Now it's just dribbling out of the filter instead of flowing (obviously because of the restriction). My question is, will this be bad for the pump?? Surly not a good thing but anything to worry about?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
djsurfs Posted December 6, 2008 Report Share Posted December 6, 2008 Not sure if it is bad for the pump, but do you think your tank is getting sufficient flow? I have had the AR380 for years and after the original sponge cover that came with it wore out tried a stocking too... and had the same problem, so I cut the fabric from a small fish net and tied that on instead. Worked pretty good. But finally hunted more sponge covers from different petshops. Good luck with your fry Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hoody Posted December 8, 2008 Author Report Share Posted December 8, 2008 Hey. I ditched the stocking for some filter wool, and now all is well! Fry are coming along good to. Good idea with the fish net too! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
