Filter and pump?

[Iruka]

I'm a bit overwhelmed at all the choices of different filters and pumps for ponds. I just need a cheap one but after looking at different ones on online stores i'm not sure what to choose, what might be too powerful for my small ponds. Plus I probably plan on covering the ponds with netting to prevent predators so I don't want any equipment that's going to make that difficult.

I have a preformed plastic pond that's pretty big, maybe 300 gallons.

And then I have some big plastic kiddie pools from walmart - maybe 4 ft in diameter?

As well as one of those big step 2 kiddie pools that come with a slide, like this one https://www.google.com/search?q=hea...+kiddie+pool+with+slide&imgrc=L-AkRaRt-SpX4M:

Build your own filter and save yourself money and the headache of back flushing some of those 2 or 3 times a day .Most times they end up smelling like open sewers You can get an in pond pump and filter .I had this on my preformed or lowes has these

Are you trying to filter all these pools and ponds with one filter or are these just examples of pools that use filters?
