    Needle or mesh wheel would be in the pump. The air instake would be connected to the inlet of the pump also some where drawing air in.

    It is kind of unlikely that ot got that clogged in 2 weeks but when I took mine apart when it stopped working properly I found shells of those weird hitchhiker snails wedged between the needles and also bits of sand or something. So you never really know there could be stuff that got sucked into there.
