Ordered a new rocking piston pump from Ted at Forever Green on Friday and received it on Saturday....WOW! It was set up perfectly as we discussed and only required two peices of pipe to put into service. Transfered valving from older rotary vane to the new pump and it works perfectly!!

Thanks very much, Ted!

Question: I transfered the old rotary vane pump #0523(rebuilt this year) into previously non-aerated pond #3. 180' +/- of 1/2" weighted tubing to a single shallow water co-active air station. The station is at approx. 7' depth. Is this too deep for that station? I see it says 5' or less on the website. The pressure guage on the pump is reading about 9p.s.i. Seems a bit high from all our conversations. Bad guage? It does drop to 1-2psi with no load on it. I have yet to move it shallower to see if it is better. Is the 5 foot limit an absolute? It appears so from what I'm experiencing.

Thanks again,
Chuck
