Default 250 gal, best pump

Hi,

I want a pump that will cost the least to run since it will
be running fairly constantly. I plan mostly a water garden
so I will probably have lots of leaves dropping into water.
I will also keep mosquito fish in it. Any filter considerations
welcome!!!

So any recommendations for 250 gal. (oblong shape with
three "fingers") pond are much appreciated.

Yep, a Mag 3 or even a 5.....our local petsmart has the pondmaster
line of pumps and there was only $5 difference in the mag 3 and 5 so
with that little of a difference in cost as well as consumption of
power I think the 5 wuold be a better deal
