When's the last time the wet side is cleaned? Make sure the wet side is completely aligned with the dry?

Is your tank a 20g long? I have an MP10 in a 20g long and I didn't feel like it was enough to reach the other side. I added another powerhead on the other end pointing toward the MP10 and that gave me the flow I want.

I run both powerheads at 100% on random. So at times I have about 2,500 gph of flow in my 20g tank.

What does “not feel current in the propell” mean? Is it pushing water or not? It could be broken, but if it’s quiet and the propellor spinning I sounds like it should be working.

Yes is pushing water but no
More than 2 inches after that you do not feel in my hand any current
