If it’s just making a clicking noise. It sounds like some sort of debris is stuck in the impeller. Take out your filter media and put it in a zip lock bag with some tank water. Take the filter off and apart and see if the impeller is hung up. It may just be an easy fix. You’re filter media should be okay sitting in tank water for a short while.
