I.e. a 250 watt pump will cost £2.50 per week (if run continuously) if running costs be a issue.
Always check ebay before you decide whch to go for, plenty of good pumps at reasonable prices.
Also you will loose upto 40% of the pump pressure going threw your filtration system so choose a pump to cover this aswell
Happy shopping

Thanks for that Darren, i,m sort of pointing that way, tho a little more insite is good.
Tho my pump won't be in the pond its self, as I have build in filter bay that the pump will sit in, or will be be in an extra bay
