Sorry if this is off topic guys, just a little stressed and looking for some input. I have an eheim professional 3 filter that has been working fine since August. About an hour ago, I turned the shutoff lever to the off position and fed my guys. When I went to turn the shutoff lever back to the on position, it made a click and did not start up the filter. The lever is now basically hanging loose. The filter is on, but no water is flowing.
I can't remove the adapter, because the safety must still be engaged.
I'm at a loss as to what to do. My LFS was no help and did not have the replacement part in stock. Even if they did have the part, I don't know how to remove the adapter.
I tried to contact eheim, but it's after their business hours.
I have a 72 gallon tank with 6 juvies. I feed six times a day and do daily 50% water changes. I currently use the eheim professional 3 canister filter and a hydro #4 sponge filter.
At this point, the only thing I can think of to do is hook up my second hydro #4 so I have two sponge filters going until I can contact eheim on Monday.
Any advice?
