Review on 💦 WAYNE PC4.5 1/2 HP Cast Iron Multi-Purpose Pump With Suction Strainer, Model 55832 by Tai Waldbillig

I bought this pump to clean my 125 gallon tank. Turtles make a BIG mess and this pump does a good job of clearing out the "garbage". I use a strainer to make sure the rollers don't get sucked into the pump, but it sucks everything else out in no time. This is MUCH faster than the aquarium pumps you sell at pet stores. My pump is still working 2 years later, it's not rusted or leaking but I had it on my bar stool next to my fish tank and my kitties managed to knock it over. When it hit the stone floor it bent one of the brass fittings and now my hose won't fit there. I can't remove the brass fitting to replace it so I have to buy a brand new pump. I would like the brass fittings to come separately so I can screw them in myself. I would NOT wear them so tight that they cannot be replaced.
