cpr hangon fuge

I was in the living room and heard something leaking water came in and seem the refugium was over flowing with water.. i was wondering what would cause this? i used the pump that came with the refugium. if i don't have it turned all the way up then won't pump the water. so has this happend to anyone before.. i'm kinda scared now that this might happen again and next time i won't be here..

Something might be clogging the return pipe.
