Increase Waterfall Flow? How about Pondmaster Waterfall Pumps?
Howdy, all. This is my first post to this newsgroup. I have done a
little searching and have not found an answer. Basically, I am interested in your opinions on the Pondmaster Waterfall pumps -- specifically the WFP2500. Generally, I am interested in you opinions on my present system and how I might improve it other than using a Pondmaster Waterfall pump. My present pump/filter is a Pondmaster Magnetic pump (1200 gph). It draws through a PM 1000 filter (12"x12") that contains a coarse polyester pad. The outlet feeds through 3/4" tubing up and around to my waterfall pan. The height is about 6' above the pump. Basically, the flow stinks and I want to improve it. I thought of getting a larger pump and filter box, but my pump should be large enough now. Perhaps the filter box is restricting the flow. Another idea is to simply add a waterfall pump (like the WFP2500 I asked about, above) and redirect the outlet of my filter pump to something at a lower level. Any comments or suggestions would be appreciated. I know a lot about sal****er and freshwater aquaria, but I am pretty much a pond newbie. I acquired a small pond with my house and I would like to keep it going. Thanks, Scott |
