This happened to me too with mp10qd's...A clean with vinegar solved it, and it spun perfectly freely. I put it into the tank and two days later it pops right off. This has happened a dozen times between the two (less than 1 year old) powerheads. It has completly turned me off of ecotech stuff.

I should add that my powerheads never spun more than 40%...not even half the power that they're rated for and they fail within a year...garbage.
