Got the Maxspect Return pump installed and it is very impressive! Easy to disassemble for cleaning and feels like a very good quality. Finishing up rockwork and will add dry sand and then ill be filling it with water! Fingers crossed gang. Its coming alive and after too long withough progress. My goal is to have water in it by the end of this year!
