I have an older inground pool. The sand filter has no numbers or markings on it. It looks to be like a Pentair Tagelus by the pictures online. It has a plastic lid on it that has a oring in between the lid and the fiberglass tank. they list a plastic lid wrench to remove the lid. my question is there a nut on the bottom side or is the fiberglass thank threaded inside? thanks in advance.
unknown brand pool filter?

Post multiple pictures of the filter and general sizes (diameter and height). We can help you figure it out....
On most filters like that the lid is threaded directly into the tank. If there is a cap on the top of the filter it is a Triton, not a Tagelus. As PoolStored mentioned, pictures are best. Here is a picture of a Triton tank:

Then, there is no cap on the top but the MPV. If it is a TA?-D, the valve is held on by a clamp. The part the valve fits into is threaded into the tank. If it is a Tagelus without the "D" the valve threads into the tank.
