I'm using an Iwaki MD-70RLZ pump for my return. I was getting a lot of microbubbles, so I decided to try clear flex hose to pull water from my sump. When I turned the pump on, the flex hose collapsed on itself and the pump kept sucking. I ran and turned off the pump, and went back to the PVC I was using previously. Now it seems that the pump does not push as much water volume as before. Is anyone familar with the internal components of a magnetic pump? Is there something inside that may be permanently damaged, or is it something that may be fixable?
