I have the older tank and the pump used to suck up eel grass all the time out at La Jolla. I also had that screen from another pump. What I did was to cut out a small circle out of the screen and then inserted inside the Hobie tank inlet hose, up against the plastic inlet end. That made all the difference. The size of the screen holes is large enough to not restrict the flow and still keep the eel grass out, without altering the clearance under the hull.
