Hello,
I just bought a new Cascade 1200 Elite canister filter for my turtle tank. I can't get either outtake or intake tubes to work. I've tried multiple different ways but as of right now I filled the canister with water and I'm not sure if the intake won't work because it's already full enough and needs to expel more water out of the outtake or what. I put the tank on a stand in hopes it being higher up than the filter would make it work but it only slightly improved. I've been pumping it and plugging it back in and pumping it while it's plugged in but nothing's working. While you're pumping some water will shoot up the tube but not go over the lip to the spray bar. I've never had a canister filter before and I have no idea what to do.
thank you,
Eric
