I bought 2 used penguin 550 powerheads from my LFS for cheap. They looked brand new and never used. I get them home to put in my 150G and set them up and they wont move any water. You can hear that its running and everything just no movement. Does anyone have any ideas why they both wont work? Maybe im just an idiot and set it up wrong. Any info would be awesome ! Thanks!
 
My 1140s didn't work when I first put them in. I think they had some salt stuck in them from the last time they were used in a saltwater tank and I just let it go. Sometimes, I shake my pond pump and it kicks back on.
