Never Give Up. When You Give Up, Nothing Gets Done!

Okay. Dont give up. Take apart the filter as much as you can and see if you can find the obstruction or the cause of the noise. Thats really the only advice I think I can give you.

Have you opened it and looked at the impeller when you plug it in to make sure it's turning?

yes to both i found out the side on the filter where the water goes down then it comes up through the filter the pipe that fits together was busted, so i think i have had no filter for at least 4 days, i was wondering why my tank was getting cloudy... omg i don't want my poor fishies to die, i added quick cure so hopefully that takes cure of any parasites bacteria etc etc

Well, the powerhead will help with flow and oxygenation. I would put the media from the filter in the tank, so the beneficial bacteria is still there even if the flow through it isn't as great as it would be in the filter
