dhg that's a beautiful pond you have and you seem to know what needs to be done to correct the problems.
I'll let more experienced people give you info on pond renovations but I wanted to mention about microhydo units.

I'm also thinking about putting in a microhydo generator and here's a wesite I found that has good units from 110v to 220v and also 12volt generators.
