How many gallons will this filter? My pond is 950 gallons so not sure if I need something bigger.

My pond is about 800 gals and this unit is good for aeration not filtration. You need to also add a good volume pump and separate filter unit.

We used this filter as a secondary unit in a much larger (1500 gal) pond to help with algae control. Since it is not very easy to clean the filter, I would not use it as an only filter unit. I think that it was hellpful in algae control as would recommend it as a secondary unit. The fountain is nice and, of course, helps to aerate the water.

We are not sure. Ours is for a special application, filtering about 150 gallons quickly. Sorry

I think the pump is adequate depending on the application (fish, plants, etc.) I have about a 1500 gallon pond with about 20 koi with a separate filter pump. Once I added this air pump (ap-20), there was a definite improvement in water quality and the fish seemed to be much healthier and less frequency in cleaning the filters of the water pump.

This pump will produce a bubble out flow surface about 8-9 ft in diameter that obscures viewing. It might be a bit large for 1000 gallons pond. We find it works well for our 6000 gallon pond.

750 to 1000 gallons then replace, I use it for the pool and fish tanks we have well water. I strongly recommend after each use you backflush the filter.

I use it on a 65 Gal. With 100 although it's supposed to handle it I would go with a bigger pump because overtime you lose pressure as the filters get dirty. It's also a pain to restart when you clean it up. I've had tons of issue with this pump including flushing organic debris back into the tank when restarting it after cleaning and leaks. I actually ended up removing the fine filters and added an Aquaripure nitrate filter, I don't even clean it anymore, just clean the foam filter that's at the intake in the aquarium. If I had to do it again I would go with a Fluval FX5 instead.

I use a 10 gallon pump with this. I don't think the tank or filter matters.

Depends which filters are in use...also whether you are adding tap water, or pond water...

I have mine mounted on the outside of the pond. It can be mounted inside the pond just make sure it is level. I would also recommend you make sure it is big enough for your needs. Do not calculate on gallons of water. You need to calculate how many fish you will have in the pond. I have 2000 gallons with 17 koi. I have 12,000gallons worht of filter and it barely keeps the water clean. Hope this is helpfull

It really depends on your needs. Ponds can range from twenty gallons to above five hundred gallons. I use this pump in a small aquaponic system about two hundred gallons. In a pond environment you could have tons of floaters or what not so I would suggest you use a filter membrane around the intake with a zip tie to hold it place. These are great little pumps for the money, but if you have a three hundred gallon system look at lifeguard pumps for more performance. Have fun with your pond..

I doubt it will do 500 gallon as it is a small filter. I have found that there is no reliable number for gallons for a filter, it is greatly effected by the water that is filtered. I would venture to guess it will do about 75 gallons if the water is reasonably clean to start with real dirty water may only do a few gallons. This is a great emergency water source but not a permanent answer for water.

I have a 1200 Gal pond. I use the External water pump branded "Turbo-Sea", model 1740-P for Laguna 2100 UVC filter.

I have the pump for up to 1000 gallons, it doesn't seem to work too well and it's DEFINITELY NOT overpowered. I would have to go to the larger size to get the power and pumping action I need in my 850 gallon pond. I cannot begin to guess about a 50 gallon pond/pump.

My pond is about 800 gallons and is in the shade during the afternoon. The filter does a great job in keeping it crystal clear. Yes the pump comes with the filter.

the 200 gallon size filter will filter 200 gallons so you have to gauge your family's water usage to predict when you hit 200. I have had my filter for 6 months now and have only filter 116 gallons of water and I only use it for drinking

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.

This is not really designed to be a cleaning filter in my opinion. It is more of a fountain waterspray than filter. My recommendation would be to get a regular pond filter, especially if you plan on having any fish or plants.
