So I change my filter on a regular basis, and today I noticed brown slimey over the whole inside of the filter/water pump area (behind the actual charcoal/foamy thing). My bio wheel is not spinning like it used to, and when I turned off the filter today to move my desk, white stringy tufts came out of the suction tube for the filter.
I rinsed out the tube part, more of the brown came out and a wad of the white stringys.
Can I rinse out the inside of the filter as well (not my bio-wheel, I will take that out) or is that something good?
What do I need to do about the bio wheel spinning problem?
