BUT, my biggest question is "What is your goal for using the aeration system?"
I get alot of filamentous algae. I'd like to try to eliminate some of that. I think I may have quite a bit of muck build up. Also for the overall health of the pond I'm reading aeration is very good.
What I think I may do is begin to upgrade my current system (that dang'd expensive weighted line lol) and roll with my current pump and add a diffuser. Will see how it does. I'll upgrade pump if I need, and then next year may add another diffuser yet and upgrade all line to 1/2". Nothings set in stone, just talking out loud.
The diffuser thatd be 375' away would be not on my property. However, the neighbor does not use the pond, and I also rarely see her. 3/4 or more of the pond falls on my property. But I'm assuming it's better to aerate the whole, rather than just a portion.
