Filter works fine, except one side where it clamps down is leaking. Other than that it works great and I don't want to replace it. Any ideas?

Is there a gasket or o-ring that is damaged or bad? IF not you can run a bead of silicon around it where the surfaces join and let it dry before you put it together. This would make a gasket.

Aquarium water is cloudy

This can happen and will generally clear with time, if you are concerned do a water change. I find that this treatment is more hassle than its worth, if you have a suitable filter seachem denitrate is a good alternative, or he aquarium pure balls.

I'm having trouble with my tetra filter

You can solve this with a simple hose clamp from any hardware store. Take the hose with you and they will get you the right size one.

Cleaned my filter out now it will not pump,never

Once shut to clean the propeller needs to be cleaned as it gets clogged. You need to pull out the piece housing the propeller and rinse off or use a thin item to wash out any debris stuck.

A size and description of the washer could help. If it is the size of the intake tube then it is for the intake tube. If it is the size of the filter then it is for the filter etc etc.

Probably some debris or a mechanical fault stopping it causing the motor to get hot, strip it and give a good clean.

Motor not running but hOt

Sounds like it is being stopped by debris or a fault and this is causing the heat, try disassembling and cleaning and see if that helps.

Can I find a replacement piece of glass for the bottom of my 36 gallon bowed front aqueon aquarium?

Sections of tanks can be replaced BUT you would have to get a specialist to do it as even a tank that size has to take a huge amount of weight on the glass and joints. A 36 gallon tank, when full has over 300lbs, (136kg),of weight on the base. It might be cheaper and easier to replace the whole tank.

Light unit not working after replacing bulbs

Try another wall connection or your wire connection, as well as making sure nothing is wet around the connections, and ultimately nothing is wrong with the entire lighting system.

I have started having tiny snails showing up in my aquarium. Where could they be coming from

They come from eggs that were hidden within the aquatic vegetation you placed in the aquarium that your fish use to discharge them away from being viewed or easily reached.

Fluval chi aquarium light does not turn off, defective switch how do I repair it?

Much too late to help, I'm sure, but the cheapest fix would likely be to add a simple tap switch.When the tap switch is turned off, it cuts the power off and the light will go out. A tap switch is simply an outlet with a switch fitted. Plug the tap switch into the wall, plug the aquarium light into the tap switch and you're set. They're cheap at places like Home Depot, likely half the price of the replacement switch from Hagen, who makes Fluval. Also a great way to make it easy to turn filters on and off without having to pull the cord from the outlet.
