    Help. Reeflo snapper makes loud grinding noise

    Help. Reeflo snapper makes loud grinding noise

    I found the manual. yes, there's lots of vibration when the sound gets loud enough to annoy. well i have put some live rock in there. plus some debri came out of some of the plumbing when i first fired the pump. I'm a total noob with this close loop system, i know how it works but not the...

    Help. Reeflo snapper makes loud grinding noise

    it's pretty cool that you can actually take the pump apart to fix things in there. After i bought the set up, the pump sat around for about a month or two with out getting any use. it sounds like it wont be a PITA, to take it apart. I guess it might be a self inflicting wound on this one as i...

    Help. Reeflo snapper makes loud grinding noise

    Thank you, for the help. its been running quietly now. i didnt do anything, i went black friday shopping and came back and i cant hear the pump over the fan. thanks, i'm guessing it might have been the grease on the bearing. maybe it wasnt evenly spread. i dont know. i'll give it a day and if...
