    Just in case this happens to anyone with a Marineland Marine Pro Skimmer. I noticed my skimmer stopped running and I double checked the electric connection and it was fine. So I took it out of the sump and took it apart. When I had it apart I noticed that there was a small snail that somehow got inside it and actually jammed the motor. I cleaned it out and it works fine again. Just a public service message.
