I put this together with a small mag drive pump and some 1/2 inch pvc and fittings. Just plug it in and suck debris out of the bottom of a fish tank.

I use the long one for the swim spa. )  The pump put together with the shorter wand.  A sock zip tied on to catch debris. A leg of a pantyhose works well too.

It may be simple, but You can't say it's a cheap set-up for the poor guy. You gotta make sure the socks don't have holes in them.
