How to pick the right pond pump?
It’s not easy if you try to guess so the
General rule of thumb is to get a pump that can turn over your entire water feature 1.5x an hour. so for example a 3000 gallon pond will require a 2000 gph pump (2 x 1.5) to keep aeration and filtration at a maximum.
It’s a false economy to buy a underperforming pump as this really is the key to a great pond , if in doubt pop down to FISH AND BITS

How often should a pond filter be cleaned ?
Clean your pond filter every 2-4 weeks, but adjust the frequency based on your pond's specific conditions, such as its size, number of fish, and plant density, as these factors influence how quickly debris builds up. In warmer months or heavily stocked ponds, you may need to clean it more often, while cooler periods or lightly stocked ponds may allow for less frequent cleaning

clean a pond filter, first, turn off the pump, then remove the filter media, such as foams and sponges. Rinse the media in a bucket of pond water, not tap water, to preserve beneficial bacteria. Reassemble the filter, re-install the media, and reconnect the pump. After cleaning, you can use a bacterial starter product to help replenish the helpful bacteria in your filter .
