Greetings from Canada eh. I have been lurking on the forums here for a few weeks reading and reading and figured it's just easier to ask, so here are my questions.
1- How do you calculate what size pump you would need to aerate a pond.
2- What type of pump is the quietiest, rebuildable, longest life.

I would like to do the DIY route to keep cost down and it's a good way to learn something new.

My pond (more like puddle compared to some ponds on here) size is approx. 75feet by 43feet kidney bean shape and about 7 or 8 feet in depth. I have tryed a misting hose on my tool compressor and it seems to work well but I don't want to use it because it's not oiless and noisey.

Thanks \:\)
