Trying to plan a small water garden with a waterfall. no fish. Looking for a pond pump recommendation. The fiberglass liner we're looking at is 8 feet 6 inches x 5 feet 9 inches x 20 inches deep and has a 415 gallon capacity. We would like to add a cascading waterfall that we are guessing will be 2-3 feet high.
We found the following info online and don't know how accurate it is: "For a 400-700 gallon pond will need a 350 gph pump for minimum water circulation, add a waterfall and general rule of thumb go one size up = 450 gph pump". Does this sound reasonable for our pond plans?
We would like a top rated, energy efficient (mag drive?) compact submersible pump. We're not sure where to start. Any recommendations or advice would be greatly appreciated!
