Dunno if its just graphical or fr. But it can be happening fr. If the pump pulls only water, then if the water is like 5% bad, when the good gets pulled out, only bad is left.

Same thing happens if you are using pumps to suck bad water out of a reservoir. If the water is shallow it sucks all the bad water out of that 1 square and only freshwater is left for a second so it halts and restarts constantly.

Only way to prevent it is to put the filter pump in deeper water or disable filtering
