TotalPond Complete Pond Filter with UV Clarifier Black 15.16 x 9.06 x 13.11 in.

Update Developed a leak around the top where the lid screws on. It was close to the seam down the tank. Others have had similar issues. I clean the tank then put a flashlight inside and pointed the beam around the lid so I couls see the little holesl.. Then I used my secret weapon for leaks and repairs. JB WELD. It is amazing stuff. Even patched a leak on copper once that has yet to fail. So spread a nice bead along the rim before the threads and verified no light shining through. Then I put some on the inside in the same area to add more reinforcement. Let it dry a few days. Hooked it back up.. No more leak. I will let you know if it does not hold, but I am sure it will. JB WELD rules.! Been using this for about a year. It works great. Mine is outside of the pond for ease of cleaning. I have something hiding it. On the intake and output I used Teflon tape on the threads then screwed the inside connector so no drip . I was generous with the tape especially up where it meets the pump filter housing. I recommend this filter. Be careful feeding the tube through the two inside filters. A few times I scrap a little skin on the inside lip of the pump. The inside lip at the top is scrap. I might try smoothing it with sand paper.

Works very well!! Water did clear quickly. 250 gallon pound. Was very green. Took only a couple weeks. Once clear I cleaned the filters. Easy to assemble. Easy to clean. Well worth the price.

Product is great. How do I find the replacement bulb for this? I can’t seem to find how to contact the Pond Store?? Thanks

Last year I set up a 300 gallon stock tank garden pond with 5 goldfish. I am new to water gardening but I did a lot of reading prior to set up. I have several plants including water lilies, iris, pickerel rush and hornwort for oxygenators. Original set up was late last summer and my water quality was good all last season. I use a 300 GPH pump and circulate through an old hand pump head and then cascade over some rocks to reenter the pond. My fish wintered over fine and most plants survived the winter as well. Mid spring there was an algae bloom in the pond and several articles I read said to just let the pond push through it and in a couple of weeks it should clean up. I added some floating plants to help reduce nitrates and the water just kept getting greener. I decided to explore filtration and came upon the Total Pond complete pond filter. I was a little apprehensive with the complaints about leaks and UV light not working. The UV light will not turn on if it is not installed in the turbe which I am sure is a safety feature. No leaks so far and at the beginning of day three my pond water has only a very slight green tint and the pond looks amazing! Installing the hose barb fittings is a little tricky to get them tight enough to seal but a couple of common tools and I was successful. Remember parts are plastic so over tightening could cause damage. I am expecting that by day four or five my pond water will be crystal clear. Also know that a UV light will not eliminate the algae that grows on pond structures. UV is a contact kill for the one cell algae that is in the water. There is no residual effect on algae after it leaves the filter. I am very pleased with the results the product provided in my pond.

This filter is not a good product for your pond. After installation and a thorough inspection; it started leaking immediately after it was plugged in for a test run. Water leaked from the intake and output as well as from the UV light. It looks like a trash can and should be used as one. Save your money and get your filter elsewhere.

purchased in may 2026, unit is now leaking at connectors sites. added hose clamps. Thought this fixed the problem, but pond drained completely twice. Unplugged it. Shopping for a new filter. the last lasted 35 plus years. Frustrated

Has been used for an entire season for a 1300 gallon in-ground pool. A little difficult to assemble, very tight fit of the internal filter, but otherwise not a problem to get going. Prior to installing this, the pool always built up a algae especially in hot weather. After the filter was in use for a few days, the water became crystal clear, and stayed that way through the entire summer. The unit is set on a high point of ground, about 3 feet above water level about 15 feet distant from pool, where the filtered water is returned via hose to a waterfall and back into the pool. The filter fittings require 3/4" hose, but I use 1/2" hose running to it and 1/2 to 3/4 adapters to transition to the filter. This restricted water flow has never caused a problem, and the pump I use to run the system only runs 12-16 hours per day, depending on length of daylight hours. The lining of the pool does build up crud over time, but that is not the fault of this filter, it is a separate problem due to our high mineralized water. The filter itself does the job it is advertised to do, and does it incredibly well.

I purchased 2 of these filters. First one lasted 2 seasons when the plastic cracked underneath the threaded part holding down the lid. Bought a replacement thinking I was just tightening the lid too much. This one only last one season again cracking underneath the threads. I never over tightened the lid so I am certain this is a manufacturing flaw. Otherwise the filter worked well but did require a lot of filter media cleaning. Going to try Pond Guy filter now.

Works very good.

This filter cleared up my water garden as never before. Until this, I was using a smaller filter that contained a pump as well and I had to change the filter every day and the water was still very murky. I bought this in combination with a separate pump, the Hydrofarm AAPW100-GPH and it works like a charm. Water is now crystal clear

I’ve had this filter for about 4 years, have it in ground with a board and artificial turf on it year round; just this year replaced foam filters and has worked flawlessly for me so far and keeps my 600 pond clean with weekly cleaning during summer months with the help of water plants. Only have 3 big koi in it but they eat like pigs 3 times a day.
