Pleatco - Filter, Cartridge 90 Sq' Sundance, 7in. Dia, 19in. Long,

My spa filter needed replacement, so I ordered this one. It is a nice spa filter, and is currently filtering my spas water as advertised

Glad to find a filter for my older spa. However, the end pictured was slightly too long compared to the existing filter and did not fit in easily, I am now hoping that I can get it out without destroying it.
