Default Calculating water lift?

Exactly what is the proper way to calculate water lift?

Let's say I have a 10' total rise and my pump is a 300gph.

How do I figure out the new gph?
There must be a simple/ standard formula.



look at the pump specs., as all have diff.
lift. 300 gph @ 10' would be at least a
750-900 GPH pump.





BTW, the information and friendliness in this ng is rather unique. The posts
& info has helped me immensely, even though I had to drain & "fix" my
mistakes twice. The pond looks wicked awesome now, thanks to info from
people in here.
