I have no idea what jammed the pump. It has a good strainer on the intake. A hermit would not be able to fit through. And it is a Mag18 so quite powerful. I gave it a couple of clunks and it started right up. I haven't taken it appart yet, but since everything is dead, I am not in a hurry. I am going to set up a dual pump return so that can never happen again. I may not restock this tank either. I am starting on an addition to my house in August in which I am building an 800 gallon tank. I may just keep the rock and sand bed alaive until that is done and Swap it all into there. At that size I can't afford to stock 2 tanks anyway.
