While you can, may be a quick and easy fix. Take power head out and take cage/cover off and remove impeller (propeller thing) and pull out. Rinse the inside of the shaft and take a q-tip and swirl around the shaft and rinse again to dislodge slime and debris. Clean impeller magnet and assure not scored up. Place back in shaft, put cover on and plug in- should run....then place back in tank
