I have two MP10's running in my tank currently. One of them I have a constant problem where it goes slightly out of alignment. I'll fix it, and then a few minutes later, it will back out of alignment and clicking/vibrating again. The dry side was replaced just a few months ago. I also took the wetside out and cleaned it completely to ensure there wasn't something on one of the blades or magnet knocking it out. Any thoughts?

Same thing was happening to me and I sent in to ecotech to get repaired. They said wet side ceramic bearing was busted and reason why they were noisy. Try contacting them to see if you can get fixed.

Was having noise/vibration issues with my MP10. Opened up the housing and found a small snail rolling around inside. 20150730_211018.jpg

I think I have 3/8" glass. The newer MP10 is fine, it's the older one. Maybe I'll buy a new wet side and see if that helps. It's old enough that they won't fix it for free anyway.
 

DO YOU THINK TECHNOLOGICAL ADVANCEMENTS ARE MORE HELPFUL OR HURTFUL TO REEFING?
