For the last couple months my tank's main pump has been making this 'gulping' noise every so often. The majority of the time it runs smoothly and doesn't make that much noise, but then intermittently, it will make this 'gulping' noise as if maybe there were waves going through the water in which it was pumping from and the flow rates weren't constant or something?? The after a minute or so of this 'gulping', it returns to normal. It wasn't doing this before? So what could be the problem??
We completely disassembled, cleaned and reassembled, so there is no blockage, and it still does this.
Has anyone had this problem before??
I have a 90 gallon tank that cycles through a 10 gallon refugium below. The pump is 15W, 115Volt.
Thanks a bunch!
