Habitat - Outdoor :: New Pond

[resfl24]

Hello everyone! I wanted you advice on something. I currently have two RES in a 55 gallon outside on our back porch.

My current setup


My male Jaws


My female Speedy

Today we were at Lowes & they had a sale on this 100 gallon pond & I decided to buy it.

My new pond

My only question was what filter should I buy? I'm looking for something around $200. Any advice would be great!

.Pick a size two times the size of your pond, because you have turtles in it. This is the one I use and my pond is crystal clear. I use the big one for my 1,000 gal pond and the med. size for my 60 gal. I like it because there is no guess work. You get the appropriate size pump with the filter, and it has a UV light for algae too.
I just turned it on after a long winter, and my pond is already clear

Sorry, I meant to say the med. for my 60 gal pond, with my hatchlings. The big pond gets really dirty, because of the big Koi.

Well, because i will only have turtles in it, I decided to buy two Marineland Magnum 350 systems. The combine for a total GPH of 700. I'll post some pictures as soon as it's finished!

for a small pond like that, id go with Fluval FX5

I really wanted a Fluval, but It was about $140 more than the two Magnum 350's.

I have a 325 gallon per hour pump for my filter, and im going to build a waterfall/filter with another pump around the same size, the guy at the pet store said it should be sufficient for my 115 gallon pond im going to post pics when i get a second
