kaza Posted July 21, 2013 Report Share Posted July 21, 2013 I have had my 2 jebo 815 filters sitting in the garage for 6months as my 300lt tank was empty however I'm now getting my tank up & running again as I've decided I want a large livebearer tank I have checked all seals & followed the instruction manual to the letter but I can't get either of them sucking water from the tank, everytime I full the canisters put top motor on plug the air valve then connect the hoses & turn it on at the wall all it does it's empty's the water from the canister into the tank but doesn't suck any water out. It must be something that I'm doing wrong somewhere as both filters worked 6months ago I can't afford to upgrade the filters at the moment & must get them going as I have fish arriving on Thursday & don't have a back up tank or filter :dunno: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
