+1 leave the red protectors in but increase the flow to get the tumble required. It doesn't hurt to got bigger on the pump as you can always dial it back if needed.

Did you leave the foam filters in? If so take them out and replace it with mesh screen.

For sure bro, you need to take the foam out and replace it with the mesh upgrade. JL sells them for cheap or Michaels(craft store) also have large pieces that you can cut. Don't ask me how I know that.
