Default Pond Vac Advice

I have a pond that is 5m * 5m * (0.4m-1.5m) deep. It has turtles and fish
in it.
I am looking for a pond vac to use with this, but there seem to be so many,
with so little information.

Can anyone here recommend what they use, or advise to not buy a model for
any reason?
Thanks

I don't use one but the Oase Pondvac has an outlet hose as well as
inlet so it can pump out a container while filling the other
one.

========================
Do *NOT* buy the one called Cyprio hand pump vac. It's totally useless. We
paid $50 for ours and felt ripped off.

Cyprio works fine but evidenty some have big time problems even
working a simple skimmer net. Hard to b eat for the price and it does
work if its used right. Best bet is astandard shop vac with a foat
cutoff and get double use out of it around the house as wel.
