Default Best way to remove fuel pump ring?

Ok best way is probably with the prooer tool of course. But I don't have one and I can't budge the black outer ring which I'm assuming unscrews to remove the fuel pump assembly.

Any ideas?

As future reference for any searches that lead here, a good DIY tutorial can be found here, including an effective way to remove that stubborn locking ring (8th picture down).

The fuel line disconnects are fiddly, but taking your time to poke around ad figure out which tabs to pry on while pulling where helps.
