I've got something similar filtering my outdoors above ground fish ponds.
They each have a 600 gph Becket pump in a mesh bag (to protect the impellers) inside the ponds pushing water up into a ten gallon tote and gravity returning into the ponds.
It's important to place a 2nd return a few inches above the primary one. So the water won't overflow if there is a clog.
I no longer use the foam that are in the photos. They get packed with silt too easily.
