How cold does it get there?

 

[cogs]

maybe 2 cel at coldest

Redundancy is best, (4) 300w submersibles set each one one degree C lower than the next , so if it's not needed some won't come on. Placement is best in the sump of the filter.

What type of filter do you run? Like Joe said, several 300 watters in the sump or skimmer should do the job.

i have a large power head that feeds a bio filter with a uv in it so they would have to go in the pond

 

[Muske]

What is the gph on the powerhead? May need to upgrade to a pump soon. Those fish you have produce plenty of waste and are not getting any smaller.

 

[cogs]

it's 250 at the moment but getting 8000l hour soon i need bigger plumbing

Sounds good.
