Hi, I'm just getting started putting together a pond and I was wondering if I could get some advice. I'm going to create a 3000 to 5000 gallon pond including a 4 to 5 foot waterfall. I've been shopping used equipment and have found a used Cal Pump PLP8000 for $200 and a used SAVIO WATERMASTER 6500 for $300. What are your opinions on either of the pumps and which do you think is a better deal?
thanks,
Mike

Welcome, Mike. I don't have experience with either of those pumps, so I can't help here, but I'm sure someone here can. Good luck!
