Hello All...I am hoping for a little direction. I am new to ponding but I love it already!!! I have a preformed pond liner (from Lowes), approx 100 gal. I have built a waterfall approx 18" higher than the top of the pond. I originally bought the 630gph pump (from Lowes), and hooked it up thru the pressurized filter/UV light (from Lowes).
The flow into the elevated pond is minimal, making the waterfall...less fun
SO, I took the 630gph pump back and upgraded to the approx 1400gph pump. After hooking the new "stronger" pump to the filter, the same result...not a lot of flow. When I run the pump directly to the waterfall, bypassing the filter, the flow is GREAT!!! and the waterfall looks AWESOME!!!
WHAT do I do??? Do I not have a filter? I doubt this will be the recommendation, but I figured I would ask.
Thanks in advance!
