My IM fusion pro 10 aio is having an issue with the third, pump chamber. I've got the pump turned down to the lowest speed yet the pump chamber does not have enough water and I get the annoying water trickling sound. I've cleaned the pump, took out the skimmer from the second chamber and that did not help? New filter pad. Anybody have a solution?
Thanks in advance

Take everything out of the chambers, then you will know if the pump is too powerful, the likely cause is something is slowing the flow to the pump, floss etc.

So the water is being slowed down by something, the speed of the water getting pumped back into the tank is to fast for the over flow to deal with, a blockage somewhere is causing this. If you remove everything then replace one by one you will see what is causing this issue.
