The right pump for your pond!

The pump you choose is based on the size of your pond and the pumping capacity in gallons per hour (gph). The pump should circulate the entire volume of the pond at least every two hours. For example, if you have a 1,000-gallon pond, you need a pump that handles at least 500 gph. When in doubt, you should purchase a slightly more powerful pump. You can always slow or divert the flow of a pump, but you can’t increase it.

It’s a work horse!
I’ve had my pond up and running for 3 months now. This thing is amazing. Zero clogs, awesome water flow. I have it attached to the Tetra waterfall with a 1” reinforced tube that I bought at Lowe’s. I also bought clamps to keep the pipe on there, and they really are necessary. They do not come with this pump but are very inexpensive.One important note: I would recommend putting a fabric cage around it if you’ve got fish. One of my rosy minnows got sucked into the plastic cage that’s built into it. Luckily, I saw it and was able to get it out before it died.
