ceadmin, that's a water storage tank much like mine. The submersible pump in the well pumps into it. Then out the bottom via an inline pump and in to the pressure tank. Then out of the pressure tank to the house.
Here's the deal. My well produces about 1/2 gpm or 30 gallons per hour. That's not much and we time my wifes showers by the calendar, not the clock. However, the well produces 24/7 to keep the tank topped off. Without the additional storage, my wife would be severely handicapped. I was told at the plumbing supply house that the average family uses about 273 gallons per day. I have no idea about whether number that is correct.
BTW, Lusk lives about 50 miles away and has a well that produces 100+ gpm. Doesn't sound fair.
It's not about the fish. It's about the pond. Take care of the pond and the fish will be fine. PB subscriber since before it was in color.
