John, Tee off your main line for a reduced flow rate to go through the UV.
(You should be a wiz at that by now GBG). On the other hand, smaller UV's
than rated for your swimmin' hole will still work, just slower. It would be
nice to get one unit that can handle your size pond at your flow rate, but
not all of us have the last name of "Gates" and have to improvise on
occasion. Several smaller units could work, too.

I found one that is almost afordable comes with its own built in pump
but I want to wait till my nw plants come in (they'r late) and see how
that works before i jump into a UV I just ordered nw mag pumps to
replace the old origional home depot pumps so should save a bit on my
eleteilic one month of running 3 mags cost me 45.00 ome month of runnin
my 2 old pumps cos 100 more so an UV is in the future in any case


How are the new babies doin?
***
they are fine and growin some another month in the q tank to grow out a
bit more, and into the pond they go, not to be seen again till next
summer ;-)
BTW the 200 galons of water in the q tank is staying clear runnin it
throuh the 55 galon filter :-) based on that I need a 4500 galon filter
for the pond GBBL

Ok so i should be able to get this from the catalog website but they
dont seem to address this or Im missing it

how oftern should the pond volume go thru the UV? or how many gph
should the thing be capable of based on my pond being 8000+ gallons?

the ones I have found that can take my pumps are in the 5000-8000 dollar
range OMG
