Does this pump have a place to pump water up to a tiered fountain? Or is it just a fountain filter?

It's a fountain filter. I'm sure you could add piping to pump it but it wouldn't be a strong flow a,d might look out of place. We hs e ours in the center of the pond and it's perfr t for us.

It does not really have a filter. It sits underwater in my pond & pumps water/debris to an external above ground filter system. It works great!

This is fairly easy to clean. The only drawback is the upper tier has a narrow "canyon" around the edge into which you must stuff a washcloth or sponge and slide it around. I bought the Drinkwell cleaning brush set and use those to clean the column into which the pump pushes water to the upper tier. I clean my fountain about once a month (I have two cats), when I clean or replace the filter.

This unit is not very big, I use it as a daytime supplement to my larger electric pump to keep the water moving in a water fountain on my deck. Since it is very small it only needs to be submerged in a couple of inches of water. I don't know if there is a built-in filter - I've had no problems with the pump but the water is always clear - not debris or dirt in it. Sorry I can't help with that part of your question.

Beeah - there is a water pump on this unit, but it only pumps water from the actual unit. The suction for removing water from a pond or aquarium is through a syphoning principle.

No, it does not. However, it is a great unit. I bought one last year and it works a lot better than the Rule pump it replaced, and it's a lot quieter.

Yes, it has suction cups so that you can hang it at the desired level in your tank and you can switch the filter attachment from side to side so that you can place it either way that's a handy feature.

Yes, it's great for cats that like to play in the water, plus it has a filter. None of the fountain style last very long for me before the pump goes, but this one lasts the longest.

It wasn't powerful enough for my two tier fountain and it only runs in bright sunlight (stops when clouds cover the sun & at night). If you need continuous water movement it not the right one.

It can go anywhere on the pressure side of the pump. Either as a flow through, or just dead ended. If you have a filter, put it before the filter.

There is a sub-pump inside, and it pulls the water through the rocks. The sub-pump is very small though, and should not be your only source of filtration. (...especially a smaller tank with several fish or a turtle..) This system is more or less a biological filtration system. ..ie... good bactetia growing on the rocks, to convert harmful amonia. In addition, it's not very tall at all, and your water level will be low. I set mine up in a 55 gallon, and my water level was only half-full. It's just not a very practicle system, and your better off with a canister system, either outside or an in-your tank system. Even a large waterfall filter would be better. Hope this helps.

Its purpose is to hold the cord at an angle off the floor of the fountain. Place the filter around the pump with the rounded side under the cord.

The filter mounts on the outside, only the intake tube and the output waterfall are in the tank. I use it for fish so I can't address it for frogs however I use Youtube quite a bit and hopefully this video might be of assistance: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JWiVQjZQNbA

Yes, I use it for my water system. It only fills the holding tank and then from there a submersible pump.

yes it has a float switch built in so when the level of water gets to a set level it turns on the pump to remove the water.

Yes, it uses an undergravel filter. That is it comes with a airpump which powers the filter.

Yes it does. In the middle of the end. There is a plastic insert that fits in the hole and attaches to the pump inlet.
