I have a 1200gal pond and the pump i use keeps getting clogged with
stuff`, cutting down on the flow.Getting to be a chore. Its a 1200gph
pump so it sucks pretty good. Is there a simple solution to this?
Also does anybody recommend what size tubing/pipe i should use with
this pump? Thanks papa63

Clogged with 'what' stuff, and how often?

Try putting some sort of screen out in front of the filter? Something
you can just pull out quickly and dump the debris?
