What does everyone use to keep crabs, snails etc from climbing into the pump intake line?

Thanx

I just use a strainer on the intake.

my return pump is in it's own section of the sump so no livestock can get close to it, most pumps come with a sponge filter so thats what i would use. good luck.

I'm running external pumps and am trying to find a good material to use as a screen either to keep snails out of the last chamber or to just keep them out of the return line intake.

Any suggestions?
