Bought a new water pump for my turtle tank can't get it to work
hi, I advise you drain the pond/inventory tank and positioned a trough hull installation to allow you to hook up a valve for prompt draining. I used a a million one on my 3 hundred gallon inventory tank and it will drain in below 5 min. otherwise a submersible sump pump is the suited type to get they have a exhibit on the backside the place the %. up is to evade plugging you are able to could sparkling the prefilter exhibit periodically. You hook up a backyard hose and drop it in.
Pump has to be off Open the reservoir on the pump You have to use water already in your setup, fill a cup with it Fill the pump reservoir until full, then refill the cup, you'll need plenty of water you might need help here from someone at home, you also might need to hold pump, or the water might drain out as you work below Turn on the pump, while the pump is running,..... pour more water in reservoir until pump is pumping water. Have to close reservoir, then put pump where it belongs. In Pets Forum here, there's a sub-forum for reptiles, theres all kinds of help there for other turtle stuff. Good luck
