Re PUMP:
If you're in CPT then you can buy the pump (cartridge) that came with my 4.57m x 1.07m Bestway Steel Pro Max, if you like.
Unused (still in box) as I haven't setup yet - and bought the Intex Krystal Sand Pump Filter model instead.
As for connectors - I doubt you need any fittings as the pump is for this specific brand (if you do then you can grab them from Takealot / Loot / Sportsman's).
Re GRASS:
You'll need to cut the grass (sod) out --> tamp the soil down --> add weed guard --> add some sand --> tamp that down --> confirm level --> place tarp --> pool.
If you just place on top of grass you run the risk of:
a) not being properly level, then the pool will lean and collapse
b) if it doesn't have a proper base, then any sharp object like stones will cut through your pool liner and end your pool time...
It's work and I was having paving done at the same time - so I'm getting the pavers to do it for me --> add artificial grass on top.
