Some of that depends on the parts you select. IE I've seen in pond
skimmers, that hook up to inch and half. Kinda a waste to run 4
inch pipe only to neck it down that much, since most pumps don't
take that either.

So what you are saying...that my plan of run all my pipes and figure
on a pump later could be a bad idea?

BV.

yes they can be burried all you neeed is the adaptors from pump
usualy 1 in to the 4 in pipe takes usualy depending on your lowes or

home depot or pipe and pump supply a 1 to 1.5 then a 1.5 to 2( these
you can find in white pvc)and a 2 to 4 here you need to hit the swer
conections black pvc or grey electical PVC I use a flex tube from the
pump to the adaptors so there is no strain on the pump when pulling it
for cleaning
