User questions & answers

Question:	What size tubing would i need if i want to extend the length of the tubing between the pump and the filter? can i use 1" (because i have 1" already
Answer:	Yes 1 inch is what you need
Question:	Is this Filter Good Enough To Filter A 200 Gallon Pond
Answer:	Our pond is maybe 60 gallons and it cleans it well. Never any issues with it besides the filter box floating which is solved with a rock on it. I would imagine 200 is at its upper range. Be sure to wash out the filters at least once a month to keep pump running well.
Question:	Will the entire unit fit well on the bottom of a whiskey barrel (used as the pond
Answer:	I have a very large planter that has a pump with a fountain and that works great but it does not have a filter. I use the pump that is the next size down for that and it is quite sufficient. What is the diameter of the barrel? I don't have exact dimensions of the filter box, (12" X 14ish as an off-the-top-of-my-head guess???)" but I think it would fit the typical whiskey barrel and if all else fails you could put the pump upon the filter box.This pump might be a step up in power than what you need. My pond is a bit over 100 gallons and this pump is more than enough. It worked all through the northern NY winter and my dime store goldfish, now 3 years old, are thriving! I'm still very happy with this purchase, I recommend this product and I hope this helps.
Question:	I want to divert the water flow over some rocks instead of using the fountain. Do you foresee any issues with doing that? Thanks (65 gal pond
Answer:	No. It's simply a matter of not connecting any of the "fountain" spray posts and running the hose directly to the rock or waterfall location.

Product description

You can easily make this yourself. I made this kit because I tried many different pond chemicals and pond filters and non of them cleared my pond water. Actually one summer most of my Koi died from the "fish safe chemicals". After that I promised not to use any chemicals in my pond. I tried many different kits and non of them worked. Finally to my surprise this kit worked. I can see my black Koi fish at the bottom of my pond. If I stop one fish from getting harmed from "fish safe chemicals" I have reached my goal. If you purchase my kit and you're not satisfied you can simply return it within 30 days of your purchase and receive a full refund.

• Pond Filter Kit with Heavy Duty Pump
• Suitable for pond with Koi and Goldfish up to 7,000 gallons
• Product dimensions: 12" x 12" x 10"
• Eco friendly, No chemicals
• Your pond water will be crystal clear in a few days

User questions & answers

Question:	Is it easy to install
Answer:	No, not terribly sure why. It lasts around a month and a half. At this price it's not totally unreasonable to replace it that often, but that's up to you.
Question:	Do you leave this in your pond continuously
Answer:	it will fit in a fish bowl
Question:	Can we change the water using this pump
Answer:	No, you need a pump to run it.
Question:	What pump goes with this kit looks like a sump pump
Answer:	This filter is a passive device. By that I mean it has no power itself. You apply power to it via an airline connected to a pump. If the pump you apply has too much power, you "dial it down" with a simple in-line air valve.

User questions & answers

Question:	How long is the power cord on the pump
Answer:	A12-15ft I think, definatly over 8ft for sure. I haven't measured it but it's a good size.
Question:	I just need a bit more power... is there a larger pump compatible with this box? Will a larger pump fit in same box
Answer:	This filter is compatible with Totalpond pump models MD11300, MD11500, DD11210 DD11330 and DD11560.
Question:	What is the difference between this model and MF002P
Answer:	The mf002p is a different brand or seller. It looks like the same setup. I purchased the totalPond at a substantial discount than what is listed:had great success with my purchase but keep in mind you will have to take the submerged system out of the pond to clean filters. Its a bit messy but the system works great for my 150 gallon pond. Also be patient it takes about 6 months for the bio-system to kick in.
Question:	How long does this typically take to filter an clear a 125gallon pond with green water
Answer:	This setup works well. Note I have replaced the pump recently after over 5 years. I’m still using the box set and the black media filter. It depends on how long and what type of filter. The blue filter works great, sometimes clearing water in about an hour. I would do a really good cleaning or a partial water change before setting up then clean the filters every few days to remove the gunk the first week or so.It’s always good to make sure the pond is mostly shaded from direct sun. A tip, fill the box with water before placement: doesn’t float or move around.

User questions & answers

Question:	Could i use this in 100 gal livestock drinking tank
Answer:	3ft should be no problem only thing that matters is the pump pushing the air to them
Question:	What is the length of each of the 4 tubes
Answer:	Fine to medium bubbles from my use with the product. It all depends on the size of the air pump you are running and the amount of lines running from that pump that will ultimately determine the size of the bubbles.
Question:	Would this item do a bang up job in a 150 gallon pond with 25 fish at an average of 5 inches each,pond is 5x4 feet 10-17 in. deepwith a hakko 40pump
Answer:	Fine
Question:	What is the recommended cfm? looking to aerate a 20000 gallon pool to raise ph
Answer:	I enclosed mine in a Tupperware container with drilled holes on the sides for air flow. It is not waterproof so I wouldn't leave the air pump exposed to rain or snow. So far it works well. Koi happy.

Question:	how wide is it
Answer:	It is 12.5" wide.
Question:	can anyone confirm how wide this filter roll is
Answer:	i'M NOT SURE. i CUT THE ROLL IN 12"X12" PCS i THINK i GET ABOUT 10 TO 12 PCS.
Question:	Do you wrap this around the pump? I have a small 3ft round pond, about 10” deep
Answer:	I have had a 4.5ft deep 25ft diameter pond for 9 years and I have used these filters a few ways. I have wrapped it around the pump and created a filter layer between the pump and the inlet. Layering seems to work better and require less cleaning. When I wrap the pump, I have to clean the filters daily during the spring and summer when algae buildup is at its highest. The layering method works just as well and I only have to clean once a week.
Question:	Can this be used as a prepump filter or should it be used in the waterfall box
Answer:	Son put it in skimmer bow before pump but after course filter pad.had to change it every day for a week but pond is crystal clear now change 1-2 a week.what a difference it made. well worth the cost.

User questions & answers

Question:	How far does spillway protrud outward
Answer:	Thanks for your question. This filter is recommended for use with pumps between 500 gph and 5000 gph. A 200/300 gph pump is likely not strong enough to power this filter. @ 500 gph the waterfall flow will be fairly slow. This filter should be far and away sufficient for a 55 gallon pond, but you will likely want and potentially may need a stronger pump. If you need more help you can call Pond & Garden Depot toll free at 1-866-305-5459 Cody H. Customer Service
Question:	Water flow is too fast. How do you slow the water down? Change pumps
Answer:	2500 gal per hour and 10000 gal per hour
Question:	Does this come with the filter and pump
Answer:	I would manufacturer. As a side note, do not use the purge feature. I changed the gear wheel 3 times. It got stuck in the purge setting. Less than a year and its broken. I still use it, but... well, you get the idea.
Question:	I have a 55 gallon pond. Will this work with the Aquascape 200/300 pump
Answer:	Yes it does. I have a small waterfall with my front yard pond and it works just fine.

User questions & answers

Question:	how do you set it up
Answer:	Just hook up your pump to the input hole and situate the discharge into your pond.
Question:	What is the white powder they put inside the small cup next to the thermostat inside the filter box? What do they do
Answer:	https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZIAKc1DKNDA this is the white powder this person is talking about, watch video, at the 4:10 mark. still would like to know what it is
Question:	This one has 3" adaptor/gasket, with printed diagram; like woeful manual, NO detail. What direction does the adaptor face — inside fins point where
Answer:	I put a pvc pipe on the adaptor to discharge filtered water into my pond. It's not a good system, not a solid connection, I stacked rocks around the pvc pipe to protect the joint,....so some "critter" doesn't run over it and knock it loose. I don't understand your question on the fins, re-word please? The discharge could have been designed better but overall the filter does do the job and cleaning the filters every so often isn't that bad a chore.
Question:	Would this filter work on a pond size of 2000 gal with fish
Answer:	Eileen, as a professional pond installer i have never actually installed one of these, we use higher end more expensive equipment so i don't have first hand experience with this filter... but i sell LOTS of them. They seem very popular. As long as you can place it above the water level of your pond it seems to be great. The manufacturer's literature says that you can use it for Ponds up to 5,000 Gallons if there are NO FISH, for ponds up to 2,500 gallons if there are SMALL FISH and for ponds up to 1,250 Gallons if there are Koi.
