Sounds like a crap day...I especially hate pumps that won't restart. Then you try and get them going near the surface...put back in place...gah!

No beagles for me ever...or another dog to be truthful. We are getting back into the kitty world tomorrow. Giving the wife an early birthday present.

We've got a cat as well. Way less stressful than the Beagle.

When I first got them I thought they were great, until I found out they don't start up again. Maybe I just got two lemons.

No. I have the two MP40's for wave action.
I use one of the the 1400's to create surface agitation and the other points down, keeping the bottom clear.

My Evo started spinning the wrong way once when I turned it off lol I turned it off / on again and water was shooting the proper way once more.

You could try putting a small piece of rigid tubing (like the 1/4" tubing for R/O unit) between the top of the impeller and the "cage"......
