unplug the filter and clean it. take out the propellor and clean it, put it back then try plugging it in. if its jammed it wont make any noise trying to go. mine got jammed up with duckweed and a malaysian trumpet snail wedged itself in there pretty good. took me a while to figure out what happened, I figured it would make a lot of noise if it was jammed.

I'd set up the 20 gallon filter and put all the filter media from the last one in there to build up a colony of bacteria.
