Fish pond filter
pumps are a very necessary part of your fish pond. There are two
types of fish pond filter pumps: external and submersible. A submersible
fish pond filter pump is meant for a pond smaller than 1000 gallons
of water. These fish pond filter pumps can be submerged directly into
the pond, thereby hiding the pump and keeping your fish pond to look
natural. These pumps work by taking the water in and sending the filtered
water back out again, either in a fountain, waterfall, or just underneath
the water’s surface.
An external fish pond filter pump does the same thing as a submersible
pump, except that it is meant for ponds larger than 1000 gallons of
water. It is also more difficult to hide an external pump, but it still
can be done. You can hide an external fish pond filter pump in a few
ways; such as with bushes or a rock waterfall. Many owners of fish ponds
create a rock waterfall with a back opening where the external pump
is hid. It is also recommended to use an external pump if you have a
fountain as you will need more energy to run the fountain.
Both fish pond filter pumps will filter out the debris and other waste
in the water to send back clean, filtered water. Though both pumps work
well, an external pump is also easier to clean as you don’t have
to reach into the water, thereby disturbing the fish. This is why many
experts recommend the external fish pond filter pump.
