Usually, the impeller eithe breaks, or sticks to the magnet. The impeller is supposed to flop around about 3/4 turn on the magnet. If the impeller doesnt flop easily, clean it and retry

Does the whole works spin freely on the shaft? Shaft isnt broken?

The impeller is the only replaceable/repairable moving part of the typical mag pump. You can probably get one for around $10 and give it a try. If that doesn't help, then the pump is more than likely done.

I've got another pump I used to have in an outdoor pond that I have temporarily hooked up and it seems to be working pretty good.
I still want to get the other pump figured out though.
