what kind of powerhead (brand)? and just to be sure, is anything blocking the intake?

I have an AC powerhead that works great, but the intake regularly gets clogged with plant debris (doesn't take much to block it)

hmmm, I have one of those as well, powering one of my filters . . . it does stop from time to time, but is generally pretty reliable . . . and I've had it for years

if you are having a problem with a new one, I'd just take it back . . .
