I have a couple of shots of the unit before stripdown. First observation is that my tank was completely free from debris - as clen a a whistle, which was encouraging. Tiny amount of mess on the filter sock, but that was about it. I found that the best way to get the bucket off was to use an imperial sized wife - Mrs R1NGA was able to wedge the recommended piece of wire into the opening gap until I was able to release the other clips. Very effective I must say smile
