Bit of a tenous link here but does anyone know the rate of flow best for a small wildlife pond?

Cheers,  Tony.

Hello isn't there a pond calculator on the box the pump came in ,its a while since I did a pond calculation I'm sure its surface area ×depth ×pump capacity it may be divide pump capacity    eg 100square metres ×1 metre deep × 500 litres an hour, may be divide the last number,I'll check with an uncle later today he has 5 pumps going in his pond    jezza

I've bought one for just over a tenner.  Looks as though it will do the job.
