I got this on 09/28/2020 as a return pump for my 20 gallon. A couple months later, sometime in December it just stopped working out of the blue. (froze) I removed it, took it apart, gave it a good cleaning and put it back. Works fine now. The pump was pretty clean btw. A few days ago, (2/28/2021) the pump just stopped again out of the blue. I took it apart, cleaned it etc.
Are these pumps prone to do that? I upgraded from a Rio 2500 to this and so far I'm kind of disappointed. (for the price) This pump is definitely more silent than the Rio, but stopping twice within 3 months or so seems kind of odd. Has anybody had any problems like this? Thanks.
