## Description

Product Description          The Tetra Pond Debris-Handling Pump provides clog-free performance for pond filters, waterfalls or streams.

This pump is engineered to circulate large volumes of pond water without clogging, which allows the pump to operate for long periods of time without any maintenance.

This allows the pump to operate for long periods of time without any maintenance. Water, dirt, and debris are drawn through the quarter inch holes in the large pre-filter cage that surrounds the pump. The pre-filter cage prevents leaves, sticks, and other large debris from entering the pump. It also protects the fish from the pump’s impeller. The open-face impeller allows debris up to 1/4 in. in diameter to pass through the pump without clogging. The pond water with dirt and debris are pumped to an external filter for removal or directly to a waterfall or stream.Flow PerformanceDetermine how high you waterfall will be from the pond surface. The higher the top of the waterfall is from the pond surfaces, the less flow will result. Take a look at the charts below for the approximate waterfall effect the DHP pumps will create at various pumping heights.

More circulation will result in better pond conditions.Filters: Be aware that filters reduce the flow to waterfalls and streams. The image on the left shows water pumped at three feet without any filter restriction, while pumping at three feet with a TetraPond pressure filter reduces flow by about 45%.

## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Bought one last summer.  Performs as advertised all season.  Removed for Winter.
*by R***N on May 27, 2019*

Works as advertised. Much better than the old sump pumps we previously used. Had required no unclogging for weeks in a messy pond. Pumping rise is about 5-6 feet to waterfall. Good flow, no problems so far. Never clogged. I disassembled it in the fall of 2019. Didn't really need to, but I wanted to see what was in there. It was pretty clean.Once it got a small rock in the impeller. I cleared that jam and it worked again. Nice.9/3/2021. The motor froze up, with water having gone through the shaft seal. It's done! I'll need a new pump. This one was trouble free while it was up and running, one jam up, easily cleared. It ran great for 3 seasons, rarely even shut it down. Decent pump for the money, but reading some other reviews, it seems that it's a gamble on how long the pump will last.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Best pump I've ever bought!
*by N***D on March 15, 2024*

This pump was the 3rd one I had tried in my small backyard pond. The first two lasted only about two years and had to be frequently cleaned. The Tetra pump was purchased in March 2018 and is still going strong after 6 years. This is even with me not taking great care of it. It went non-stop this winter. I cleaned out the filter box and filter in August. Today is the first time I have cleaned the filter pad since August and the waterfall still had a great flow of water in spite of the pond being full of leaves. I do not recommend this kind of abuse of the Tetra but promise you cannot go wrong purchasing it. It is EXCELLENT!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Powerful, tough pump
*by J***E on July 23, 2014*

Very powerful and efficient pump. I had to replace my pathetic old pump/filter combo (endless clogging, no power) so decided to upgrade and go with a separate pump and filter system for my fish pond. I hoped to use this pump first to clear out the 8 years of much and sludge accumulated in my pond that made the water a dirty mess, and it worked perfectly. It can pump out pretty large pieces of detritus, and when larger stuff clogs the intake vents (and the flow slows), I found if I turn off the power, there is a brief back flow of water from the filter that pushes the clogs off the vents! Then I can start the pump again. I haven't had this long but am very impressed and happy with how it works.Also.......... The third day after I set the system up, I was away for several hours and came back to find the hose popped off on the filter and almost all the water was gone from the pond (2" left for the fish!). The pump was squealing like mad - it isn't supposed to run without water. I have no idea how long it was running without water, but after filling the pond quickly, I turned it back on, and..... it has been working perfectly for several days! This is a tough pump!!!
