thanks rc and bill.

my initial plan was to run 2 9" diffusers in about 14 ft. of water. from charts i've read that should be around 4000+/- gpm. so if my figures are right i should be able to turn over my pond volume in under 4 hrs so i would probably only run it 6 or so hours overnight.

i may even run the diffusers in shallower water to decrease the load on the pump.

now to make up my mind on whether to build my pump housing inside or outside of the polebarn. crazy

i think i'm going inside....

does any of the pondboss sponsors sell anything other than vertex diffusers? i would rather spend money with people who help this site as long as the pricing isn't to far off.

thanks
