The water action was very disappointing; I describe it as a trickle not a flow. The specifications of the pump were as follows; Cleans as it moves pond water High performance wet bearing pump Waterfalls up to 10 ft. Patented technology Pond Pump Type: Submersible Gallons Per Hour (Gallons): 1300 Tubing Required: yes Maximum Lift (Inches): 198.0 UL Safety Listing: yes CSA Safety Listing: yes ETL Safety Listing: No Horsepower (HP): 15.5 Warranty: 1-year My pond specifications are as follows; Lower Pond: 3ft x 4ft x 3ft Lower Pump Box: 1.5 ft x 2ft x 2ft Head: 12 ft. Distance Pump to top of Head: 31ft. (1.5 in. flex pipe) Upper Pond: 2ft x 1ft x 2ft. Top Tier Lip: 1.5ft Middle Tier Lip: 1.5ft Bottom Tier Lip: 2ft Would you please evaluate my water fall and make a pump recommendation. I want to put koi in the lower pond; with my space limitations in the upper and bottom ponds, could you make some recommendations on UV and fish population numbers.
