i was thinking i sump but 2 pumps for better flow....it works out to be the same......so with X2 one inch bulkheads thats 600 gph each so i need 2 600 pgh or lower pumps....
What kind of pond is this ? Above / below ground?
Concrete, wood, vinyl?
Do you have any plans drawn up you can post?
One pump and split the return, and use to create circulation toward overflow / drain.

So... Where are these plans? I am sure dr.joe here has gained quite a few #s from all that popcorn

i would def. go with 1 pump split, but i would use larger bulkheads. that way if one gets clogged your ish doesnt overflow. been there had that problem. but had safeguards in place.
