If you are in the mood of water theraphy, mean that you like to the sound of the water fall, you may want to consider a pump size that a bit higher than your previous ones, and vice versa. In a nutshell you should be able to determine the effect of the waterfall you need since you already have your previous old pump running before.This should be your best guideline to check the size of your new pump needs. There is a bit of extra caution needed if you are thinking of using a bigger size of pump, you should ensure that the pump are not sucking to fast of the water. If this is the case you might be end up having your pond drain half tank. You can get the circle time for the water flow base on the pump size from the catalog.I'm sure your hardware guy are gladly assist you in understanding the matrix conversion Pond size over the pump size,since I can't explain in detail here about the graph reading. But in most cases I just relatively using the first option of comparing the old pump size with the new one. Hope that help. Fazla Hi Don,

In a nutshell you should be able to determine the effect of the waterfall you need since you already have your previous ancient pump running before.This should be your best guideline to check the size of your new pump needs.
There is a bit of extra caution needed if you are thinking of using a larger size of pump, you should ensure that the pump are not sucking to quick of the water. If this is the case you might be end up having your pond drain half tank. You can get the circle time for the water flow base on the pump size from the catalog.I’m sure your hardware guy are gladly help you in understanding the matrix conversion Pond size over the pump size,since I can’t clarify in detail here about the graph reading. But in most cases I just relatively using the first option of comparing the ancient pump size with the new one.
Hope that help.
