How Do I Remove Return Pump RedSea MaxS-500

[Olympius]

A small firefish was in my sump and got sucked into the return pump. How do I safely remove the RS Max S Main 7000 return pump and clean it?

This is the external return pump in the sump, yes?

If its like the Max S-650 you just follow the return pump line up towards the tank and there is a union fitting. Just unscrew that and pull the pump out.

Which way do you turn the nut on fitting to loosen
