Keep in mind what esshup was saying. You want your fusers if you have more than 1 about an inch away from each other. The closer they are the better up welling you will have with you water getting to the surface to get the D.O. your after. 1 by itself in the winter is fine just to keep the ice melted some but out in the middle of your pond I would have at least 2 in a 1 acre pond. I have a 1 acre pond and my 2 work great. I am running a Gast 1/3 hp pump in 8ish foot of water at 4.5 psi. I am not running vertex fusers though. Vertex fuser have very very small slits in them so it would stand to say that your pressure may be a bit higher with them. I have 2 Vertex fusers I plan on changing to and am going to see what my pressure is then verses what my pressure is now. I am curious to see how much more pressure it will put on my pump.

The only difference between a rut and a Grave is the depth. So get up get out of that rut and get moving!! Time to work!!
