    Commode not holding water
    The water in the commode bowl is suddenly very low. The water flow from the tank is fine but most of the water leaves the bowl and none is leaking onto the floor.

    Replace your tank flapper (called the flush valve).

    I'd start by checking inside the toilet tank and see if the refill tube from the fill valve has become dislodged from the overflow tube in the center of the tank. If the tube is loose or dislodged, place it back into the overflow pipe and flush the toilet a couple times... should fix it... ;)

    If that isn't the issue then pop back and we can discuss more options, OK?
