Will this kit work for a Koi pond? Would i need anything else to make it complete? I already have a 200 gallon pond liner. Thanks for your help.

Yes, I have this in my Lowes 200 gal. kidney shaped pond. I live in Florida. This is a very high maintenance item. I am constantly clearing the pump and cleaning the tank. It works.

This is a very simple system, it can work with any kind of pond provided water is clean enough to go through the pump..

Unfortunately, I haven't been able to build my pond yet.... But I'm told this will work very well for a Koi pond. I hope to have mine finished this summer. My source is a gentleman that builds ponds and systems for using the ponds as a source of fertilizer for the landscaping..... Hope this helps.

I've used an loved this kit for my koi pond an it holds 500 gallon. I purchased a large pump an it's worked really good.

I use it with mine, just place it so the waterfall clears the edge. I didn't need anything else and was pleased

I think that is how big my fish pond is and it works great. The only other recommendation I would have is to get a filter box for the pump so doesn't get stopped up with debris.

It's a really good pump/waterfall set. Just be careful not to run the lawn mower over the pumps cord - that's sadly what happened with mine and I haven't found a better pump since to replace it - I may be buying another one of these in the near future. Good luck with your pond

Yes, I'm running it in mine. I have a plexi and I think it does a great job. I also have this on my 20 gallon puffer tank. You'll love it. Much better than the other makers.

There is a chart on K&H;'s web site that you can use to fugure out what size watts you need for your pond and area.Good luck.

It has worked for me, our ponds are ruffley the same size. You will have to purchase or manufacture some sort of defusor. I use a large soda bottle filled with rocks with holes drilles all around it.

Is there anything else in there besides the turtle? If you want to use this one just do the math and make sure there's enough room to fit the skimmer in there. The water level needs to stay pretty consistent, otherwise it doesn't work that great.

Yes it should b working good in that size pond. You need to check the filter and the setup definitely.

We have an outdoor Koi pond..4,7000 gal. Works great. YES or came with à bulb.

Yes you may. I have a 7' by 7' pond and this is an amazing apparatus. The only problem is you need a lighter weight hose to attach to your regular hose to make it easier to use. I found the regular hose was too hard to use. My husband suggested the lighter weight hose to attach and it made all the difference in the world. (I still use some chlorine to keep the algae down) I simply purchased the small floating deal on Amazon to keep the chlorine in so I don't have to deal with it daily.

Great idea you have. Yes, that is what you would do. I replaced mine on my Sea Doo. The fiberglass shell basically has a hole in it that this fits in. The seal will prevent it from leaking as long as the surface of the pond is not really curved or flexible. Good luck!

I have an outdoor 100 gal fish pond and I have no algea so I would say yes.

I don't know what the parameters for water testing are for an aquarium and if they're different from a pond but if I were you I would call the phone number on the package and talk to the people who make the product. They can answer all of your questions for you better than I can.

The 10-watt model is rated for up to 1500 gallons, the 20-watt for up to 3000 gallons (http://www.amazon.com/Pondmaster-02910-Violet-Clarifier-10watt/dp/B00025YVGW/ref=pd_sim_lg_2?ie=UTF8&refRID=1R49KXXSFNEBR4QAJTRK ). These lights work only on planktonic algae, not string algae. If your pond is in direct sunlight, has a severe planktonic algae problem, and has no pond plants to compete with the algae for nutrients, you may want to consider the 20-watt model; otherwise, the 10-watt model should be suitable for a 650 gallon pond. If your pond has fish, ideally you should use a pump that will recycle the entire volume of the pond every hour; that is, a pump rated for no less than 650GPH (gallons per hour). If your pond filter is positioned higher than the water surface of your pond, the head height of the pump will need to be considered, because it reduces the flow of the pump. You would likely find it very helpful to visit a store that sells Koi and pond supplies. Owners of those shops usually have a lot of experience building ponds and dealing with water quality issues, and they are happy to help you purchase the right equipment.

It should be compatible with GPH flow,but I must warn you that the filters in this unit are very course and do not trap small particulates as promised. These filters in my opinion are not the best filter on the market and regret buying the 2 that I purchased. I am doing a completely different set up this year,finer filters and a skimmer,but I must tell you that my pond is 4200 gallons and supports 14 Koi 14" and larger. All in all I would not reccomend these filters for small or large ponds. Hope this was helpfull. Marc

My pond is an outdoor pond. I would honestly say that the filter system is definitely sufficient. I wouldn't mind having a slightly larger one though.

I have owned both. There doesn't seem to be any difference. BOTH have given me 2 1/2 years of continues running service. Make sure you pick the size you need for your pond.

I have a 700 gal oval Pond, 33 inches deep, no waterfall, not sure if type I have would be enough. Love the one I have , keeps water crystal clear, if treated correctly I would look into filter depending on depth, and gallons you stated

This is meant to seal and keep water out from RV roofs / but if you put it on inside the pond perhaps the pressure of the water against it would help seal. However, you would have to drain the pond and make sure the area was completely dry before applying. Don't think there is anything in it that would hurt your fish.
