Hey @BranchScape ,
Do you by chance have a digital caliper you could use to provide a precise inner and outer diameter of the pipe in mm to 2 decimal places?
Rough draft I just tinkered.

Edit: Oh wait, you have the skimmer on the outflow pipe. That makes things a little more complicated. I would also need to now the distance from the outer top edge of the pipe to the skimmer pipe. I assume the outlet is also angled. This might not be a good solution for those pipes.

Priming video. I took this near the end.

I do not but I ordered one from amazon. I would only use this on the outflow with no skimmer. Thank you for looking into this.

Did you intend to post a video?
Also, can you post a photo of the outlet pipe when you get those measurements since it's not the one with the skimmer.

I tried but it's too big for the site, I will need to upload to Youtube. The video of it priming is funny. I will get some more videos as well to show noise and outputs.
 
Thank you the compression app worked. One video is to capture the low volume of the filter and this is during startup when it should be the loudest. The other video is the tail end of it priming. Look at how low the water line got filling the thing. I couldn't film the whole prime as I used my hand to block splashing as it was pretty violent to start.
