Smaller than expected
By Richard Lane
The three level was supposed to be their largest for a pond < 2,000 gal. That may be so, but prepare to clean often.I have a 800 gal. pond with ~ thirty med. goldfish that had green and cloudy water. After achieving clear water via algae control and pond bacteria and this filter, the three level, two stage filter design is effective for fish waste, dead algae and sludge, when mated to a recirculation pump that will exchange the pond water volume within two to four hours. I placed the filter at one end of the pond and the pump with aerated fountain discharge at the other end. The filter media had to be cleaned every few days until water became clear. Once water became clear, the filter has to be cleaned every ten to fourteen days. I would not recommend a one or two level for any pond more than 250 gal.The filter is well designed for easy disassembly. Cleaning the media of the sludge is messy but not difficult.I established a method for fast effective cleaning using a minimum amount of hose water and using the sludge in my composter. Happy to share method of cleaning by request to RLane@cox.net or cell 504.481.9735

perfect
By twistedtech
My order arrived promptly... trouble free purchase.I bought this for mechanical filtration for my medium sized pond. I was hoping to somehow mount a Mag 18 pump on this and use it to feed a waterfall.I cut a piece of PVC pipe as a spacer and used a PCV pipe thread adapter on the pump inlet putting the pump inlet through the top cover. I was happy to find that the top cover was beefy enough to support the pump without worrying about it cracking. It fit without modification to the pump or filter. I also drilled the housing and added a safety pin on the lid so it couldn't accidentally unlock and come apart. It's been working perfectly.The center chamber of this filter makes it easy to add chemical filtration media as well. The filter comes apart quickly for cleaning.
