Trying to cycle a new tank and my pump chamber keeps running down until there is no water left? Could it be a bad pump, the tubing loose, any ideas?
 
Can you turn it down? Are the weirs on the other side blocked or closed? It looks like you're pumping water out faster than its coming in.

No adjustments The other side seems to be flowing through the filter pad and around like it should, nothing blocking it!
 
It’s been fine until I got home from work today I heard it blowing bubbles
 
Hmmm....weird. Did you take everything out to make sure nothing could be restricting flow?
I think I got it figured out! I pulled the filter pad up & it has stopped doing it now! I think the pad was down too far and blocking it like you said. Thank you so much, my first aio tank so trying to get used to it haha
