I’m going to be getting an aussi water dragon soon. Right now I’m looking at putting in the pool/fountain for the wooo effect, filter the pool, keep water moving, and to raise humidity levels. I don’t want to take up too much space with a waterfall but I’d like to have it up higher against the wall and flow into the pool. I saw at the petstore they had one in a fish aquarium that was huge and looked custom how does someone arange pumps and filters to make their own waterfall? I already know how to make the fake rock walls. I’ve looked at all these other waterfalls like exo terra but I’m just not impressed they all take up too much room and the water “falls” like 5 inches from the top while taking up like 12 inches of the lizard pool. Last resort I’d like to know how to just run some pumps to some filters to keep the water flowing and filtered.

The problem is all the water splashes out. Someone told me to get a “splitter” and attach a fountain head to one end and use the other end to run the hose for the waterfall. Does this make sense? Where would I find a splitter and how would I attach it?

I recently added a waterfall which falls into both my pool and my spa. I have a 2 1/2HP circ pump and a 3/4 HP Booster pump for the Polaris, but the flow seems low. When I have the waterfall valve open, the return jets open, and the valve to some fountains open they just don’t give alot of flow. I have to partially close off some of the valves to get the waterfall and fountain to give adequate flow. I am wondering if adding a booster pump just for the water fall will help, or do I need to purchase another circ pump to get the flow up?

I am looking at one of these on ebay

would it do good for a very small pond? my bottom pond is an 18 gallon tub, and I want to pump water 3 feet away and a foot off the ground to my top pond with is only say… a gallon would it have enough power to keep a constant flow going?
